🍁 Cheka-OGPU: The Baku-Grozny airliner was hit over the Naursky district of Chechnya, where several military units with air defense systems are located. According to the transcript of the conversations between the controller and the crew, the pilot mistook the strong blow to the plane for a collision with a flock of birds.
In fact, the damage indicates that a missile fired by air defenses exploded near the plane. The same impact occurred at an altitude of 2,400 meters.
According to open sources, several military units are located in this area, including those with air defense systems. Back in late 2011, the Chechnya Today website published a laudatory article about new weapons capable of controlling the airspace of the entire North Caucasus. The article states that the motorized rifle brigade of the Russian Ministry of Defense stationed in the Naursky district had a new air defense control system at that time, Barnaul-T. It is known that after the recent UAV attacks, several Pantsirs were also deployed in Chechnya.
❗️ Let me remind you that the President of Azerbaijan, Aliyev, has already turned the plane he was flying to the summit with Putin around Moscow and returned home. He must have been upset. However, he should have been upset when Putin started this war. And what happened is just its consequences.
How tf do you confuse a straight and level flying airliner with a transponder and adsb for a missile
Probably when you are russian with no training and told you are responsible for all threats in the sky. Something like that.
