    That’s about 100 km from the front, so unless this is Russian air defense shooting at Russian planes again or some kind of catastrophic in-flight failure, I assume that that was an S-300 or Patriot.

        Could be, yeah.

        Hmm. Though looking at the article again, it says that Ukraine claimed several kills.

        I’d guess that if Ukraine reported taking it down, it probably was because they knew that their missile impacted the plane and it went down.

        Like, more likely than a failure or greatly-delayed destruction.
