Just so you can see a bit better what happened with the SU25, here's a YouTube video with some slowmo and closeup screenshots.

It was an accidental hit by an air to ground rocket, not a missile. The schadenfreude is just too much.

>The US does not want to lower the price cap on Russian oil within the framework of the G7, Bloomberg. According to Bloomberg sources, the US is not backing down from its position on lowering the price ceiling for Russian oil. This dims Europe's hopes of pushing the decision through at the G7 summit in Canada. The sources specify that the final decision on reducing the price cap lies with US President Donald Trump. However, there has been no shift in Washington's stance since it was laid out at the G7 finance ministers' meeting earlier this year.<

Stop denying reality. Trump is aligned with Putin/Russia. Do what you have to do to hurt Russia economically.

I think the time is right for a robust European Defense Force. If Ukraine should fall, Central Europe and/or the Baltic States are next in line.

Trust me here, Trump isn't going to save you. He prefers Russia over Europe.

Trump's pulling an Orban.

Incompetence by both pilots, regardless of whether the rocket hit the wingman, or the wingman's evasive maneuvers overstressed the airframe and broke off his wing.
 
The White House is wanting to tweak Congress's Russia sanctions bill so that there is "enforcement flexibility" (Note: The source making the claim is anonymous, so...)


Behind the scenes, the White House is pushing for revisions that would grant the president greater discretion in enforcement. Specifically, officials are seeking to replace any "shall" with "may" in the bill’s text — a subtle but significant shift that would weaken mandatory enforcement.
