Ukrainian anti-air crews claim to have downed 13 Russian aircraft in 13 days, rounding off a torturous month for Moscow's air force, even as ground units report significant battlefield advances, according to Newsweek.
"It seems like being a Russian military plane pilot is the worst job in the world," Ukraine's Defense Ministry wrote in a post on X. "February is the shortest month of the year, but our sky defenders have achieved the greatest results in downing Russian jets since October 2022."
Kyiv listed 10 Su-34 fighter-bombers, two Su-35 fighters, and one A-50 long-range radar detection and control aircraft as the downed planes. The A-50 is the second of its type claimed destroyed by Ukraine since February 2022. Ukrainian spy chief Kyrylo Budanov said that Moscow has only six A–50s left.
Russia's Su-34s have been playing a key role in supporting Moscow's winter offensive on the eastern front. Air-dropped KAB glide bombs have been credited as vital to Russian success in and around the small city of Avdiivka, with Ukrainian defenders lacking the air-defense capabilities to stop such sorties. Russian fighter-bombers can release the munitions from as far as 25 miles away.
Forbes reported that Russia's air force has acquired a total of 140 Su-34 fighter-bombers. Ukraine claims to have downed 35 of them. The Oryx open-source intelligence tracker lists 25 Su-34s destroyed.
If Ukraine's figures are accurate, the Russian air force would have around 105 Su-34s remaining in service. However, an unknown number may not be operational due to damage, a lack of pilots, and required routine maintenance.
"The impact of losing 13 aircraft in almost as many days, and possibly some of their highly trained pilots, is not negligible for the Russian military," the Institute for the Study of War wrote.
