Ukrainian MiG-29 pilot shooting down six Russian aircraft, making him the first ace of the 21st Century.

Edit: FOR ALL OF YOU ASKING FOR PROOF, WE NOW HAVE NEW POSSIBLE FOOTAGE OF THE GHOST OF KYIV DOWNING A RUSSIAN SU-27/35 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ri4bX7JRkMQ

Edit 2: The above footage has been found to be likely from DCS, take it with a big grain of salt

Edit 3: The Ghost of Kyiv has reportedly scored four more kills, bringing his total kill count up to 10 kills and making him a double ace!

Bro, just because an aircraft takes out another aircraft, doesn't mean it's this fake shit.

Su-35’s aren’t a big deal, they’re just old aircraft parts fitted into a brand new body. Unlike the F-35 & J-20 which are true next-gen aircrafts. Russia has a habit of frankenstein-ing old parts into a shell & calling it a “new” thing. They’ve also done it with their “Armata” tanks. Our military has done similar stuff during our WoT, but the difference is: our shit actually worked.

How many would that leave operational then?? Thought Russia lacked a ton of modern jets

Wiki says 116 Su-35S in 2020. I surely hope the rumour is true but I am pretty surprised that an older generation fighter such as MiG-29 could shoot down 2 of these.

Ghost could have that backed into a corner animal mentality.

Russian jets are there to complete an objective, he's up there to just fuckin rage.

So.... like Russia sending waves to the front with the 2nd lines being told to shoot anyone coming from a front-lines sort of direction?

I'm not suggesting that I like Russia or their tactics, but that Sun Tzu quote does sound to me like what Russia did.

What do you say now that it was proven fake?

That's btw what he's most afraid of. Rumors are that he had the Death of Gaddafi on repeat. Muttering to himself that this will not happen to him. For those that don't know. Gaddafi was sodomized with a Bayonet.

Meterano@reddit

Before or after?

[-]

LostInSpinach@reddit

During his murder. Its all on tape it seems.

[-]

jsharpminor@reddit

How do you call that a murder?

[-]

LostInSpinach@reddit

Because it was? They tortured and killed him while he was unarmed. That's murder. Not an engagement. The world is a better place without Gaddafi but I don't see the reason not to call it what it was.

muggape@reddit

I heard the Ghost of Kyiv was an American volunteer who moved to Ukraine from Rhode Island? Can anyone confirm this?

[-]

KyleSchwarbussy@reddit

No, this was a fake news story that people have been trying to reframe as an urban legend a la Molly pitcher, but it was just entirely made up from the start.
