Wrong.
We are talking about the whole of Ukraine now. Right?
Do try and keep up.
If Russia wanted to actually flatten the Ukraine, they would send in tactical bombers like they did in Syria. Remember that?
You're just clutching at straws now.

Pretty much this if anyone had common sense and not bias. Like when everyone is making a big deal out of Russian helicopters being shot down. They are like oh look this chopper got shot down Russian equipment is trash etc etc. Uh, it's a helicopter no amount of armor or build quality is going to help against modern munitions. A rifleman can kill a 70 ton tank with a disposable rocket he carries on his back of course a chopper is going to go down if hit with a anti aircraft missile. This isn't the movies.
