One of the best pilots of the Ukrainian Air Force died in an air battle

20

Ukrainian sources confirmed the death of the captain of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Anton Listopad, who was considered one of the best military pilots in Ukraine. This, in particular, was reported by the representative of the State Service for War Veterans and Participants of the "anti-terrorist operation" in the Ivano-Frankivsk region Vladimir Verkalets.

Details of the death of Listopad are not yet known. According to some reports, the pilot died during an air battle, according to others, his plane was destroyed by a blow from the ground.



Shortly before the events described, Anton Listopad was awarded the Order "For Courage" of the third degree from the hands of Vladimir Zelensky.

Three years ago, Listopad was recognized as the best pilot in Ukraine. During the celebration of the 30th anniversary of the country's independence, he led the flight of a column of combat aircraft over Khreshchatyk.

Earlier, the intelligence department of the Ukrainian military department reported the death of Colonel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Ruslan Popov in the southern direction of the Donbass Front. Posthumously, Popov received the title of Hero of Ukraine and the Order of the Golden Star.

Along with this, the publication Telegraf27 informed on July 27 about the death of the intelligence chief of the headquarters of the 299th tactical aviation brigade of the Ukrainian Air Force, Major Oleksandr Kukurba, who was a pilot of the Su-25 attack aircraft.

      So "He died in an air battle" or "Details of the death of Listopad are not yet known"?
      Liquidated.

      confirmed the death of the captain of the Armed Forces of Ukraine

      I will not worry. Where are our captains? Why do our generals fly? And when will the APU run out of planes, with pilots? I would like answers to questions.

      Three facts from the news feed

      On June 15-16, the Commander of the US Central Command, General Michael Kurilla, visited Tajikistan.
      - We are grateful to the Armed Forces of the Republic of Tajikistan for ensuring the safety of the aircraft of the Air Force of Afghanistan, which arrived in the country in August last year. Despite the fact that the Taliban have repeatedly threatened and put forward their demands in this regard, the planes will not be returned to the Taliban, since they do not belong to them.

      The Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced the risks of helicopters hijacked in Afghanistan getting to Ukraine
      Russia would not want Ukraine to get about a hundred helicopters and planes, on which the Afghan military fled to Uzbekistan and Afghanistan last year, said Zamir Kabulov, special representative of the Russian president for Afghanistan, director of the second department of Asia at the Foreign Ministry, in an interview with RIA Novosti.
      ... in Tajikistan about 60 and about 40-50 in Uzbekistan ...
      Local media, citing officials in Tashkent, reported that the republic does not plan to return military aircraft to Afghanistan, since it is the property of the United States.

      The armed forces of the United States of America are conducting exercises "Regional Cooperation - 2022" in Tajikistan.

      The United States Embassy in Dushanbe reported that the ten-day exercise started on Wednesday, August 10 at the initiative of the US Central Command with the participation of the military of Pakistan, Mongolia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan and Tajikistan.

      Question: will these combat vehicles get to Ukraine? Probably yes.
      The second question: does Ukraine have pilots for a hundred cars? I think it has. Or they will be prepared.
      Question three: Is Tajikistan a "partner" of Russia? There was a message recently that Russia is ready to accept 200 guest workers from Tajikistan

      Amnesty for guest workers: Putin promised to allow 200 expelled citizens of Tajikistan to enter Russia

        Yeah. I was on a train with Muscovites, so they call "pyaterochka" "bishkek"

          "Besh" is translated from Turkic as "five"

            Pyaterochka employs a lot of workers from Kyrgyzstan, hence Bishkek.

              I do not argue. But it is somehow strange to call the store after the capital. Most likely they just changed the word "pyaterochka".

              In any case, it is not good to eat. It starts small, then they start reshaping the streets, and so on. In Houston, they took me to Chinatown. Just for your reference. All street signs are in Chinese. To my surprise, the escort replied that many in Chinatown did not speak English. In the South of the States, airport announcements are already being bilingual (English and Spanish). Heard in New Orleans and Houston. Similarly, the policy of "multiculturalism" failed in the EU. Visitors (guest workers) must know the language of the host country. This should be one of the main requirements.

        So who is now heading the CSTO - Russia or the US? Is it really the United States, since they are conducting joint exercises with members of the CSTO? Will Russia express concern?
