His (combat jet) flying days are likely over. You can only handle one, maybe two ejections before it messes up your spine from the high G-forces.
Not sure that’s Russian policy if they’re low on pilots.
Yeah that would be the policy for a normal country but considering Russia they will put him in aircraft until he stops breathing.
Good point. They probably don’t care if their pilots get permanently paralyzed from one too many ejections, considering their complete indifference to their front line soldiers becoming part of the Meat Cube™.
You can still fly but you’re not allowed to eject anymore
Graduate from pilot to payload.
Here I assumed they probably had ejection-seat experience as standard training. But that makes sense I suppose.
It is not exactly clear when and where the video was taken, nor who exactly “they” were. According to a BBC report earlier this year almost 350 Russian fighters, ground attack aircraft and tactical bombers have been shot down over the battlefield during the last two and a half years. These have been by both Ukrainian air defense assets and “friendly fire” incidents.
What in the Gen z alternate reality are we living in? lol. True “modern warfare”
Now that is an extreme selfie!
did anybody figured out when did that happen?
Yes, shortly after his plane got hit.
Anybody here know if this was from one of the f-16’s?
More likely Russian air defense.
