@americanmilitaryone: PART 2 ; Ukraine Just Used The Deadliest Aircraft In History On Russia A Ukrainian MiG-29 hugs the dirt at ten and a half miles a minute with eight American-made GBU-39 Small Diameter Bombs under its wings, and ninety miles ahead, a Russian S-400 Triumf battery is waiting for the one move the mission demands. This is the full breakdown of that ninety-second window: how a Soviet-built fighter carries NATO glide bombs on BRU-61/A racks through a custom Ukrainian adapter, why the 91N6E Big Bird radar can track targets 180 miles out but not a jet at 200 feet, and what happens when two 48N6DM missiles chase a pilot who refuses to stay above the radar horizon. Then the second race begins. A MiG-31BM Foxhound launches an R-37M, one of the longest-reaching air-to-air missiles ever fielded, at a target diving for the deck. While the pilot fights for his jet, eight bombs glide on alone, straight through an R-330Zh Zhitel GPS-jamming corridor and into the last fence at Komar: a Pantsir-S1 with twelve 57E6 missiles, twin 30mm autocannons, and a sixty-second window. Six hits inside a stopwatch. Russia's longest-ranged air defense system, its farthest-shooting interceptor, and its premier point defense all spent against $40,000 bombs. And a smoke column that tells analysts exactly what that long, low building on the eastern edge of Komar really was. #ukraine #russia #beyondmilitary
