This month has become the most challenging for the Russian air force operating in Ukraine, with estimated losses of nearly $1 billion in aircraft. The downing of the Su-34s not only represents a significant blow to Russian air operations in the region but also signals Ukraine’s growing capability to defend its airspace against hostile incursions.
The Su-34 fighter-bombers are central pieces of the Russian air force, designed to hit ground and sea targets with a variety of armaments, including precision missiles. The loss of these aircraft not only imposes a substantial financial cost but can also affect the morale and strategy of Russian forces involved in the conflict.
