On further inspection these images actual show remains of 2 different #Ukraine Air Force 🇺🇦 Su-25 Frogfoot - Blue 19 - Blue ??
At the same time, there’s photographic evidence that the Ukrainians have shot down at least one of Russia’s killer drones. Yes, the Russians have shot down at least three TB-2s, but the Ukrainians can afford to lose more drones.
Commercial satellite imagery from Feb. 27 appears to show a couple of wrecked Su-24s at Lutsk following a Russian strike
In retaliation, the Russians have managed to shoot down just two TB-2s that analysts have verified. The most recent documentation of a wrecked TB-2 circulated on social media beginning Wednesday. A day prior, photos appeared online of MAM missiles in Russian hands, possibly from the same destroyed TB-2.

There however is evidence the Ukrainians have lost at least one Su-24. On March 30, a video circulated on social media apparently depicting a Ukrainian bomber trailing smoke over Rivne in western Ukraine, purportedly after a Russian fighter intercepted it. At least one of those claimed kills appears to be valid. On or before April 3, someone shot a video depicting the crash site of an apparent Ukrainian Su-24. Its blue camouflage pattern is visible, as are the remains of one of its AL-21 engines
While supplying aircraft would address the immediate problem of replacing attrition losses, Ukraine's main airbases have been subjected to attack, with at least six MiG-29s destroyed on the ground at Ivano-Frankivsk Airport in the southwest of the country.
Oleg Chervov was buried at the memorial to military pilots on the Alley of Heroes of the Komintern cemetery in Voronezh...In the upper part of the monument to Major Filipov, there is a Su-25 attack aircraft directed into the sky - Oleg Chervov also flew on the same plane.

(ajuda)The aircraft is a Russian Su-34 two-seater tactical fighter-bomber that the Ukrainian military says it shot down over the town of Borodianka, northwest of Kyiv, early in March... Ukraine's defence ministry has posted images of the wreckage, which it says had the tail number RF-81251 and the call sign "31 Red".
(elevated) terrain and vegetation in the background. This photo is probably showing the wreckage of the Mi-24 shot down on 5 Mar, in the Bashtanka area.
Certain is only that the Ukrainians lost another Su-25: ‘Blue 31’ was shot down yesterday afternoon
A formation of Russian helicopters comes under ground fire, resulting in two of the helicopters — apparently Mi-8 or Mi-24/35 types — impacting the water. While one of these rotorcraft is brought down, the other appears to make a remarkable recovery and continues flying.
Earlier today, the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense published a photo of the wreckage of a Russian Aerospace Forces Su-25 Frogfoot ground-attack aircraft, a type that has apparently already seen extensive use with both sides during the conflict. Unconfirmed reports suggest that a Russian Mi-8 helicopter that may have arrived on the scene of the crash to assist was in turn brought down by Ukrainian air defenses. At this stage, this is only speculation, however.
There are destroyed helicopters visible elsewhere around the airfield, as can be seen below on the facility's northwest landing pads area.However, none of them appears to be actively burning and some of these losses are the result of prior attacks. The Planet Labs satellite image that The War Zone obtained also underscores how much of a target-rich environment the base is at present, both in terms of aircraft and ground vehicles, some of which may have been left behind by withdrawing Ukrainian forces
...footage has also emerged showing the apparent demise of a Russian Aerospace Forces Su-34 Fullback strike aircraft. Although the location and date of the incident remain unconfirmed, the aircraft is clearly seen in a flat spin, in which an aircraft plummets from the sky in rotational motion with no forward speed. A flat spin is sometimes impossible to recover from, which was the case here, although it’s unclear whether the jet was hit by an air defense system or suffered some other kind of failure.
Russian air defense systems shot down a Ukrainian Tu-141 Strizh drone over Crimea, allegedly launched from Odessa.
There has certainly been attrition in the war so far, with extensive claims of TB2 kills from the Russian side and confirmed evidence of the destruction of at least seven examples.
