There may be powerful technical solutions – an aviation expert on the downing of another Russian A-50

Ukrainian military shot down another Russian reconnaissance aircraft A-50. But not only Patriot or FrankenSAM systems could be used for this.

This is the opinion 24 Channel was expressed by aviation expert Konstantin Krivolap, noting that there could be very interesting technical solutions. According to Channel 24 sources in the special services, this was a joint operation of the Air Force and the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Moscow Region.

“Tracking all these events with the Russian “plane crash,” I have the feeling that they not only use Patriot or FrankenSAM systems with certain modifications. It seems to me that there are also some very interesting, very powerful technical solutions. Such an analytical assumption,” – said Krivolap.

Why the Russian version of “friendly fire” is meaningless

The occupiers, meanwhile, stated that the plane crash was supposedly “friendly fire.” But this is a meaningless statement and an attempt at falsification. After all, the A-50 aircraft provides information about what is located where and what flies where. He independently makes target designations for both air defense systems and aircraft. However, for Russians all sorts of versions are suitable, because they don’t understand this.

Dying at the hands of one of your own is not as bad as dying “by the hand of the enemy.” This is a very advantageous position, purely psychological, to say that “my hut is on the edge, I don’t know anything, the commanders said, I believe in it.” “This is nonsense,” added the aviation expert.
