What is known about the new achievement of the Armed Forces of Ukraine?

The Air Force Command of the Armed Forces of Ukraine made an official statement on this matter.

According to him, the enemy fighter was destroyed in the Kursk region of Russia — that is, in enemy territory.

This morning, June 7, 2025, as a result of a successful Air Force operation in the Kursk direction, a Russian Su-35 fighter jet was shot down! Together to victory! — the statement reads.

What is important to understand is that this is the first enemy aircraft destroyed after the large-scale Operation "Web", which was successfully carried out by the Security Service of Ukraine on June 1, 2025.

Recently, the SBU showed unique footage of a special operation that resulted in the downing of 41 Russian strategic aviation military aircraft.

It is worth noting that a significant part of them was irretrievably destroyed, and some of the affected aircraft will take many years to rebuild.
