I got back to ID-ing Tu-95's destroyed in Spiderweb (01 Jun).
I'm finally very confident in the identification of the 4 on Olenya airbase. Some of these were previously identified incorrectly.

I needed to look into tu-95's, so I had a closer look to ID the two that flew close to Japan a week ago. Turns out, Japan's JSO press release PDF had better images than their twitter.
b/n 41, RF-94186 and b/n 60, RF-94202
Note an extra b/n in a blue circle on the tail. That wasn't there before.

One of the ru propagandist channel has posted a video, allegedly from this dead crew from summer 2024.
Even though numbers were blurred, i could ID it as Ka-52M, b/n 44 Yellow, r/n RF-77634, c/n 35385001007
There's no guarantee it was the one destroyed in Oct 2025, though.

russian aviation propagandist zemtsov has posted an image of a destroyed Ka-52 from 17 Oct 2023, either Berdyansk or Luhansk airfield.
I've identified it with strong confidence as 85rd, RF-13437 from 440 ovp (s/n 35382616010). Example image attached, but based on more than just it.

second one some older variation of Mi-8MT, I'm less familiar with them.

I cannot find if i posted my spreadsheet on bsky before, so here it is anew.
This is a spreadsheet of ru aviation losses - crew and airframes. I've now added a new sheet in the end "Ka-52" that lists all of them sorted +/- by serial number and marks which are gone.

Two days was enough for ru to sweep away the debris this time, but not to clean up the soot. Yeah, there were definitely some fueled/loaded planes destroyed over there.

Honestly, if you have some doubts about Ukraine and russia, if you (for some reason) believe that it’s not clear as day, entirely black and white, good vs. evil type of conflict, here’s the thing. Why are all the goddamn pedo freaks pro-russian? Errol Musk is in moscow right now.
