Russian junker. SU-34 shot down yesterday. Where is the SU-57? Is India still buying Russia Junk? Russian air defense shot down their own plane and a Pantsir air defense missile destroyed it's own command van. Two drones landed on the Russian AWAC and detonated. Plane damaged but able to fly. Putin only has six of these in his entire air force. Resistance is starting in Russia.
Well I guess luckily for Putin, Russia doesn't have a shortage of Shovels....

said in its latest intelligence update.It mentioned a shovel known as MPL-50.
