Combo & Vendetta: Ukrainian Armed Forces Speak About Russian Tu-22M3 Aircraft Destruction

Today is a dark day for Kremlin propagandists.

The destruction of the Russian российского бомбардировщика Ту-22М3 bomber 300 kilometers from the border with Ukraine is revenge for the attack on Ukrainian cities.

Air Force Speaker Ilya Yevlash noted this on air (of Radio Svoboda).

“This is a vendetta for the fact that Russian strategic aviation attacked our peaceful cities today, where civilians died,” he emphasized.

According to him, today's downing is the first time that the Air Force, together with the Main Intelligence Directorate of the Ministry of Defense and other structures of the defense forces, were able to destroy a Tu-22M3 strategic aviation aircraft.

In addition, two Kh-22 supersonic cruise missiles launched by this aircraft were also shot down for the first time.

“Of course it’s a combo. Today is a dark day for Russian propaganda media. I think they will be very, very unhappy there today. “Everything happens for the first time,” noted Ilya Yevlash, adding that at one time the Ukrainian Armed Forces shot down the Kinzhal aeroballistic missile and the Zircon hypersonic missile for the first time.

And after the downing of the Tu-22M3 strategic bomber, which can carry up to three Kh-22 cruise missiles, he hopes for the first destruction of the Tu-95 strategic bomber-missile carrier.
