Looks like a truce has been set..and timeline is getting worked on.

That's a very dumb move by russians, getting too close and using gun's of flanker to deal with uwv's instead of guided munitions at a distance.
Or better use UAV with guided munitions to target those uwv, instead of using expensive fighter, that's basically what Russian army does, but russian naval aviation( whose flanker got shot) don't know why doesn't use UAV's.

Аlready tried it - it wasn't effective. The best way was to destroy them from helicopters until we got anti-aircraft drones (AA-missile or YkB-12.7).

Yesterday there was an epic naval battle. The epic is that a state that has almost no fleet chased the Russian military fleet in the waters of Novorossiysk. About 30 Ukrainian naval drones of various types (sea minelayers, torpedo bombers, kamikaze, FPV carriers, anti-aircraft) "walked" near the port of Novorossiysk and protected aerial drones from the Russian Black Sea Fleet. Therefore, not a single Russian military ship risked leaving the bay. The repulse of the Ukrainian attack was entrusted to Russian naval aviation. As a result, the port is burning, the Russian fighter is shot down.

Oh please. You didn't do it alone. You had the massive EW support from NATO & US. They were spoonfeeding you all the real time intel while keeping their assets safe. Russian needs to take out those EW assets.

It doesn't matter whose coat of arms is depicted on the shield, what's more important is what the shield protects.
Another Russian Su-24M shot down near Crimea.

Correction: These were AIM-9 AA missiles (not R-73) and both downed combat aircraft were Su-30s.

Russian Su-34 fighter-bombers struck the building of the State Emergency Service of Ukraine in the city of Kupyansk with a FAB-1500 bomb. According to Russian media, military units were stationed in the building of the State Emergency Service of Ukraine. As a result of the strike by the Russian FAB-1500 bomb, the building of the State Emergency Service of Ukraine was completely destroyed. Ukrainian media published photos of the aftermath of the bomb strike.

It matters a lot, because you're completely dependent on NATO counties. There is no worse feeling to me than depending on people that are a bunch of selfish assholes who will cut you off when it serves their self interest.

For the dolboebs:
It is possible to compete on equal terms in the ring, in football (soccer) or basketball. But not in a war with a big enemy. Russia is a militaristic state that has spent its entire 30 years developing and producing weapons. It attacked an ordinary country. Of course, Ukraine needed support.
All sorts of American gomos will not convince me that Putler lied about his desire in Munich in 2007.

Ukrainian media published footage of the destruction of a Russian Su-30SM aircraft using an AIM-9M Sidewinder missile launched from new Magura V7 naval drones. The video was filmed on May 2 near Crimea, on that day the Ukrainian army carried out a large-scale attack of naval drones and cruise missiles on Crimea and the city of Novorossiysk. The Su-30 aircraft carried out the destruction of Ukrainian cruise missiles. Despite the fact that Russian FPV drones destroyed Ukrainian naval drones. Apparently, they also decided to use the Su-30 to destroy Magura V7 naval drones. To destroy the naval drones, the Su-30 presumably descended to a low altitude using a 30-mm GSh-301 aircraft cannon. After that, the Su-30 fell within the range of the AIM-9M missile. AIM-9M Sidewinder air-to-air missiles have been produced in the United States since 1983, their range of hitting targets when launched from the ground is up to 7-8 km, the altitude of hitting targets is up to 3-4 kilometers. It is worth noting this is the first hit by the Ukrainian Magura V7 naval drone of a Su-30 aircraft. The pilots were reportedly rescued. The use of the Su-30SM to hit naval drones indicates that the defense of the Crimean coast is insufficiently developed.

This only will strengthen Russia resolve to take Odessa no matter how long it takes. But I'm sure the French will come to your rescue and save the day. https://eadaily.com/en/news/2025/04...ring-to-send-troops-to-odessa-and-other-ports

I dont think France & UK will sent troops to Odessa or any other place in Ukraine with out a deal that involves all parties including Russia.

Else, they become targets.

Gooras will be hiding in Lviv, not Odessa, safe from harm.

They should have put taking Odessa and Nikolaiv as the original war goals instead of the all or nothing decapitation strike they tried by landing at Hostolmel airport

I suggest waiting until May 9th.

There are currently 280 AD complexes near Moscow, but in other places there are zero.

Ukrainian military equipment was moving to repel an attack by Russian troops, units of the 83rd Airborne Brigade of Russia in the village of Belovody. As we previously reported, the Russian army entered the territory of the Sumy region of Ukraine. FPV drones "Prince Vandal Novgorodsky" were used by the Russian "Tigers" unit. The Ukrainian military column consists of a Stryker and M113 armored personnel carrier, an American-made HMMWV armored vehicle, a Turkish-made Kirpi armored personnel carrier, and a Soviet-made BTR-80.

Footage of a naval battle, Russian Project 03160 Raptor boats, Project 02510 BK-16 landing craft, with Ukrainian Magura V5 sea drones. The location and date of filming are not reported, presumably off the coast of Crimea. Technical information about the Russian Raptor boat is in the link to the video in the comments to the video. The battle uses Ukrainian Magura V5 sea drones armed with Soviet-made R-73 missiles designed to destroy air targets. Russian servicemen use Kord and PKM machine guns to destroy sea drones, and also use the RPG-26 grenade launcher.

The first case of the destruction of the Ukrainian MLRS M142 HIMARS by the Russian FPV drone "VT-40" has been recorded. The video was filmed near the village of Rusin Yar in the Donetsk direction. For an unknown reason, the Ukrainian MLRS M142 HIMARS came close to the front line, according to some sources at a distance of 10 to 30 km. Naturally, the HIMARS MLRS firing was immediately noticed. The Ukrainian MLRS HIMARS launcher was tracked on the march and hit by a drone. The M142 HIMARS MLRS was developed in 1996 by the American company Lockheed Martin, the cost of one installation is about 5 million dollars.
