The other place I go for Ukraine news they were saying if it was an SA-5 (S-200) it would be the longest range SAM kill in the history of warfare.

One guy that is familiar with this missile says watching one launch is like watching the space shuttle launch, lol.

Everything you never wanted to know about the S-200....

A-50 is basically a jetliner.  They aren't especially fast or maneuverable.  Not sure what kind of countermeasures they have available to them

This video shows the A-50 being shot down.  It appears to be firing flares and maybe chaff?  Based on what someone said.  https://www.reddit.com/r/interestingasfuck/comments/1ay6kh4/another_ruzzian_a50_was_shot_down_today_it_tried/

Fact is nobody knows WTF happened with the A-50. It's not even clear it's actually an A-50. Others have claimed it was an IL-76. The last time the Ukrainians claimed to shoot down an A-50, it turned out to be a false claim.

Friendly fire is the most likely version, but it may have been Ukraine, though it's unlikely at this range.

In any case, a plane was shot down and lives were lost. Which is sad. If it was friendly fire, then the Russians need to figure out what's going on and fix it fast.

There’s video footage of the wreckage. It clearly is an A50.

I think it was Russia doing a friendly fire on their own aircraft because they aren’t really clearing with their pilots when they’re doing these scattershot barrages of missiles. That’s why this happened. I don’t think they were close enough for Ukraine to get to take credit for this one. Although I’m sure they did shoot at it.

The theory I heard that makes the most sense is the S-200 bit on the flares while at the same time a Russian S-400 was targeting the S-200 but then switched over to the A-50.

I’m no SAM missile expert but I read what a lot of subject matter experts hypothesize on the matter.

No. Where I shop they’re free and end up scattered all over the neighbourhood.
Like wooof said only Aldi wants a $2 coin for their trolleys. I didn’t even know it was a thing until a couple years ago as I don’t shop there.

Once again, who gives a fuck?

I answer your questions.
Everyone in a democracy should care about democracy. Whether they fully appreciate it or not. Is up to the individual.

For most people they’re yes or no questions. They’re not gotcha questions.
