În noaptea de 15 spre 16 august, la ora 04.44, sistemele de supraveghere ale Ministerului Apărării Naționale au detectat pătrunderea unei ținte aeriene în spațiul aerian național, dinspre Republica Moldova, la aproximativ 24 km nord de Galați. O aeronavă F-18 a Forțelor Aeriene și Spațiale Spaniole, care execută Serviciul de Luptă Poliție Aeriană la Baza 57 Aeriană „Mihail Kogălniceanu”, aflată în misiune de monitorizare, a realizat contact radar cu ținta și a primit aprobarea de angajare. Drona a fost doborâtă în condiții de siguranță de aeronava F-18, la ora 05.01. Un posibil punct de impact al resturilor dronei a fost identificat între localitățile Băleni și Cudalbi, județul Galați, într-o zonă nepopulată. ➡️ facebook.com/mapn.ro/posts/p…

#BREAKING: A second wave of drones are launched by the #IRGC Aerospace Forces at #Israel. These are all Shahed-136 one-way attack (suicide) drones and they don't have navigation lights. You can see one of them moments after launch from #Ahvaz, Southwest of #Iran.

Remarkable exchange. And shows that tensions are building up in 🇷🇺 over the high losses in the war it has started.

Two MiG-21 crashes, 71 days apart. In one, the Commanding Officer of the squadron survived. In the second, the man who was to replace him as Commanding Officer, perished today. indiatoday.in/india/story/in…
The sad irony of today's fatal MiG-21 crash

The sad irony of today's fatal MiG-21 crash

Death of Group Captain Ashish Gupta, a seasoned fighter pilot, in a MiG-21 Bison fighter crash today has cast a pall of gloom over the Indian Air Force.

Something is definitely off with the headline figure, but to be clear, this is NOT the unit cost of a Tejas Mk.1A. The original 37-38,000 crore number included R&D, fixed costs, MRLS, ground equipment, PBL etc. nitter.gq/YusufDFI/status/134932…

38,000 Cr se 48,000 Cr ho gaya. One LCA to cost 578 Cr = $80 mn.
