Quoting: Anonymous Coward 84178994 Looks like he initiated the turn at too lower speed, the wing completely lost lift. |

Meanwhile 5 us sailors are in the brig for sharing video of a woman pilot flying an aircraft that cost ten times what the Russian plane cost into the tail of her own aircraft carrier. Clown world. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 84178994 Yeah, that was a WTF for me too. Su-25 are some of the most competent badass CAS pilots out there and there was nothing tricky about that airfield. |
