    weekend hit as many as 20 Russian warplanes, destroying around 10 of them, two U.S. officials told Reuters, a figure that is about half the number estimated by Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy.

    Eh. Still seems pretty good.

      A year and a half long operation to destroy around 10 planes that weren’t even used in the war, totally worth it.

        They were strategic bombers, specifically exposed for inspection and surveillance because they were part of nuclear capabilities. Destroying any of them is such a massive escalation towards MAD that I am still trying to wrap my head around the whole situation.

          This is a direct violation of the START treaty by the US.

              At least during the cold war times they used to understand that a nuclear holocaust would not be in their interest. Seems like that understanding is now completely gone.

                I genuinely think that The US either beilivies no one would ever nuke them, so they dont need to care, ot thats its more braud, and they think no country will ever directly attack the US.
