Was reading reports the Russian military was providing training on these mobile missle systems to some of these outside groups in Ukraine. Either they are fn stupid or it was done on purpose. The weapons systems are quite modern and would let you know whether it's a civilian aircraft or other.
Actually, no, they wont. That kind of technology is currently impossible.
If anyone wants to know what is, and is not possible with current weapons platform technology from someone with extensive experience operating, mantaining, and servicing these kinds of weapons platforms and fire control systems, feel free to ask me, They havent really changed much since things like flir and crows2.
Vehicle ID is entirely dependant upon the capabilities of the operator of the weapons systems platform, w
hich is why US combat soldiers (and undoubtedly other properly trained nations)are rigorously tested on vehicle ID in both daylights and Thermals (very, VERY hard.) every couple months. Something these tards very clearly didnt engage in (nor need to for this particular instance) As there is currently no modern military craft that remotely resembles a modern jet passenger aircraft.
They did it on purpose, they were gloating about it on twitter until they found out it was a passenger plane full of investors funding aids research hrading to a summit.... At which time the tweets were deleted.
Arseclowns literally shot down the cure for aids.
