Ukraine destroyed two Russian Su-27 aircraft at Belbek airfield

Ukrainian Security Service drones attacked the Russian military airfield Belbek in Crimea. Two Su-27 aircraft were hit.

This is reported by BAKU.WS with reference to the SBU.

"Long-range drones of the SBU's "Alpha" Special Operations Center hit two Su-27 aircraft at the Russian military airfield Belbek," the message states.

One of the aircraft was on the taxiway with a full ammunition load and was ready for a combat mission. It was destroyed.

It is noted that the approximate cost of both aircraft is about 70 million dollars.

Additionally, damage to the control tower has been confirmed, which may complicate the organization and control of flights at the airfield.

This is already the second successful SBU attack on the Belbek airfield in recent days. On December 18, the service's drones hit Russian equipment worth hundreds of millions of dollars at this airfield: two "Nebo-SVU" radars, a 92N6 radar from the S-400 "Triumph" air defense system, a "Pantsir-S2" air defense system, and a MiG-31 aircraft with full ammunition load.
