Thank you Tom! And thank you Don! Also Mozdok AB hit, I saw no reports of the damage, but it is a strategic aviation AB, and it's definitely hit by long range drones.

Of course! Sorry, forgot to add it to the list.

Thank you Tom for updating despite your region being hit by heavy thunderstorm. I hope you and your family are well and safe.

I've seen mentions elsewhere (yeah, I know) that Su-57s have flown sorties in or near Ukraine. How reliable are the sources that they are not operational?

I haven't seen an atom of evidence in support of all such claims and - knowing as much as I do about the status of OAK and most of such projects - I _strongly_ doubt any Su-57 ever ventured even near Ukraine.

Yes, the Kh-69 is a 'version of the Kh-59 made to fit into Su-57's weapons bays', but that doesn't mean it's released by any Su-57s: it's released by Su-34s.

Otherwise, the Zvezda TV would be showing related videos 24/7...

Makes sense. They wouldn't want the propaganda disaster of one being shot down.

Thanks for the update. Hope the wheather improves in Austria. The report from Chasiv Yar was pretty negative, seems like the Russian succeds there?

That's coming forward in their own way: grinding themselves to death, and that by thousands...but, so they think, that's the way forward. Precisely along Pudding's plan...
