Russia can no longer be silent: Turkish fighter destroyed Armenian Su-25

29 September 2020 77

An F-16 fighter of the Turkish Air Force shot down a Su-25 attack aircraft in the skies over Armenia. Official Yerevan reports. The stormtrooper pilot was killed.

It is specified that the Turkish plane was involved in the cover of drones and the Azerbaijani Air Force, which are involved in the operation in Nagorno-Karabakh.

F-16 took off from the Azerbaijani airfield Ganja and covered the actions of Azerbaijani aviation and drones that attacked the settlements of Vardenis, Mets Masrik and Sotk in Armenia itself

- reported the press service of the Ministry of Defense of Armenia.

We add on our own that if the incident really occurred in the skies over Armenia, then it is uncompromisingly an act of aggression by Turkey. This is an attack on a member country of the Collective Security Treaty Organization. In this situation, Russia must take prompt and most stringent measures to protect the sovereignty of Armenia. In the event of Moscow's silence, the Treaty itself will be in jeopardy - the members of the defense union will have natural questions.

Armenia must receive reliable cover for its airspace. Turkey needs to point out that violation of the sovereignty of a CSTO member state is unacceptable and will be toughly suppressed by all available means, without regard to possible consequences for bilateral relations.

Aggressive external policy Ankara has reached its climax. After the illegal invasion of Syria, after attempts Turkish military to shoot down our planes in the province of Idlib in March this year, Erdogan decided to open another front against Russia. We hope that the Kremlin will not leave this attack unanswered.

  A fat plus sign from me for the truth. That's right! Ankara officially admitted that they did not shoot down and officially and not officially, the Turkish Air Force does not participate in the battles. I will even say more .... Turkey is constantly in contact with the Kremlin in this conflict.

If shot down over Armenia, there should be debris from the rocket. We wait.
As soon as this conflict began, our over-the-horizon radars and satellites are sure to spill this region in full. Fortunately, it is small and close.

An F-16 fighter of the Turkish Air Force shot down an Armenian Su-25 attack aircraft, the pilot was killed. Press Secretary of the Defense Minister Shushan Stepanyan announced this on her Facebook. The incident took place on Tuesday afternoon.

The Armenian pilot died heroically.

A Turkish fighter took off from the airfield of the Azerbaijani city of Ganja and covered the actions of Azerbaijani aviation and drones that were striking the settlements of Vardenis, Mets Masrik and Sotk in Armenia itself.

At this time, the actions of the Armenian air defense were supported by aviation. During the combat mission, the Armenian attack aircraft was shot down by a Turkish fighter. The means of control recorded a Turkish plane at a depth of 60 kilometers towards the territory of Azerbaijan, at an altitude of 8200 meters.

If Kazakhstan and the Republic of Belarus do not fulfill their obligations today, then the Russian Federation will not be able to count on their help tomorrow, and if so, then the Russian Federation should stop selling weapons to these countries at the same prices at which the Russian army receives it and to protect these Russian countries too not worth it. The Russian Federation needs allies, not parasites, and if they demand for themselves equal rights with the Russian Federation, then let them make a contribution equal to that of the Russian Federation, and if they donate less than the Russian Federation, then even if they don’t stutter about equal rights with the Russian Federation. Those who have 90% and 3% of the shares do not have equal rights, here it is the same. The Russian Federation is not obliged to pull all military spending on its own hump.

-What ...- is it really established that the F-16 shot down the Su-25 ??? -It's not a fake ???
- If this is reality; then personally I will only repeat what I have already written ...
- Namely ... - Once, personally, I already asked the question of whether at least one fact was recorded (and this fact is actually established and has evidence) ... - the fact that sometime and where -that, in some kind of air combat by a fighter, an attack aircraft ... - or by any other military aircraft of Russian (Soviet) production, at least one F-16 (of any modification) would have been shot down ??? -Can anyone give such a fact ???
= The fact that the Russian military apparatus is already down the line of the F-16 ... - these are generally recognized and more than once proven facts ... - they just have a place to be ...
- No, and F-16 ... - also got lost by air defense (surface-to-air missiles); but so that in an air battle ... -personally I am not familiar with such facts ... -Maybe someone can give such facts ... -I will be very grateful ...
- There are many statements about ... - who is right there ... - Armenians or Azerbaijanis (or Turks) ... - Personally, I absolutely do not care ... - But what worries me is that again it is very simple and with impunity another F-16 shoots down another Russian-made military aircraft ...
- Personally, I ... - a specific person ... - and it just amazes me that no one else present on the site (except me) cares about this happening ... - No, well ... again "invulnerable F-16 "so easily, playfully ... - another Russian-made military plane knocks down ... - and here they only argue about ... - who is right ... - and who is to blame ...
- As for specifically ... - the very sad event that happened yesterday; then Russia rather meekly transfers "similar things to its own address" ... - this is when the same F-16 has already shot down Russian military aircraft more than once (and even the same Su-24 and others) ...

In vain the old woman is waiting for her son to go home,
They will tell her - she will sob.
And the waves are running from the propeller astern,
And their trace disappears in the distance ...

... something inspired, must be at the level of DNA ... how long is the memory of the war lasts 4 generations. 800 years have been a continuous war with us ... but the trouble is for the "highbrow" women, but they don’t give birth as in their favorite proverb. However, I think we’ll have enough for one more war. Only in this case, it’s too small, sort of like a “small change in pockets tyrit ", sincerely necessary

They killed a Russian officer - Major Valery Danelin! For this, the Turks must take revenge!

And what worries me is that again, very simply and with impunity, another F-16 shoots down another Russian-made military aircraft.

And since when has the Su-25 become a Russian-made aircraft? If you, once again, write garbage, then at least formulate your questions correctly! The aircraft of the Armenian Air Force, produced in the USSR, manufactured at the plant in Tbilisi. Where and from which side is the Russian production of this aircraft?

-What ...- is it really established that the F-16 shot down the Su-25 ??? -It's not a fake ???
- If this is reality; then personally I will only repeat what I have already written ...
- Namely ... - Once, personally, I already asked the question of whether at least one fact was recorded (and this fact is actually established and has evidence) ... - the fact that sometime and where -that, in some kind of air combat by a fighter, an attack aircraft ... - or by any other military aircraft of Russian (Soviet) production, at least one F-16 (of any modification) would have been shot down ??? -Can anyone give such a fact ???

- The only time the F-16 (Turkish) was shot down was by the Greek Mirage-2000, 25 years ago, during the turmoil between Turkey and Greece over Cyprus. Other occasions in air battles while was no more.

- There are many statements about ... - who is right there ... - Armenians or Azerbaijanis (or Turks) ... - Personally, I absolutely do not care ... - But what worries me is that again it is very simple and with impunity another F-16 shoots down another Russian-made military aircraft ...

- Since the plane belongs to the Armenian Air Force, it is Armenian. Where it is made is no longer important. Moreover, what can an attack aircraft against a fighter?

- Personally, I ... - a specific person ... - and it just amazes me that no one else present on the site (except me) cares about this happening ... - No, well ... again "invulnerable F-16 "so easily, playfully ... - another Russian-made military plane knocks down ... - and here they only argue about ... - who is right ... - and who is to blame ...

- The F-16 is indeed a very successful, very good fighter, among the Turks it is equipped with very good American air-to-air missiles, if not the latest modification - AIM-120D (range on oncoming heads up to 180 km), AIM-120C7 (range up to 120 km). Very accurate missiles, active radar homing heads ...

- As for specifically ... - the very sad event that happened yesterday; then Russia rather meekly transfers "similar things to its own address" ... - this is when the same F-16 has already shot down Russian military aircraft more than once (and even the same Su-24 and others) ... Armenia ... will bear it too ... - where to go ...

- If the Most Serene One has profitable commercial relations with Erdogan - will he quarrel with him to death over some unfortunate Armenian plane? If you haven't quarreled over the Russian ?! Especially when, after the last elections, the leadership of Armenia turned to Russia, I hesitate to say in front of the ladies, what place ?!
