Cerul pe care Rusia nu l-a cucerit. Două Su-35S s-au pierdut fără intervenția Ucrainei

The recent loss of two Russian Su-35S fighter jets over Kursk highlights the ongoing wear and tear on Russia's air force, which has struggled to achieve air superiority in Ukraine despite its technological advantages. The incident, which occurred without Ukrainian intervention, raises questions about pilot training and maintenance under prolonged combat conditions. After more than four years of conflict, the Russian air force has faced significant operational challenges, leading to a reliance on standoff weapons rather than direct engagement. This situation reflects a broader issue of operational strain on military resources, emphasizing that the true cost of war extends beyond the loss of aircraft to include the degradation of personnel and logistics.
