俄羅斯入侵烏克蘭以來，俄軍表現不如預期，而且根據烏克蘭通報的數據加上戰場傳出的消息，俄軍損失慘重。

烏克蘭國防部在8日公布的戰況報告中，指俄軍至今已經損失超過11000名軍人、46架戰機、68架直升機與超過290輛坦克。俄軍此前也公布過一次陣亡數字，遠低於烏克蘭所宣稱。雙方數字都無法核實。

近日烏克蘭國防部再宣稱，在第二大城哈爾科夫附近又擊落1架蘇愷34轟炸戰鬥機，這讓俄軍損失的蘇愷34來到4架。

蘇愷34是基於蘇愷27開發的重型戰鬥轟炸機，負責戰術轟炸與攻擊任務。普遍認為，蘇愷34是俄軍當前多功能全天候戰鬥機，也曾被派到敘利亞作戰，也搭載許多先進的裝備，包括裝甲座艙、新型射擊控制電腦等，另外在座艙外加裝裝甲，保護機師不被地點高射火炮所傷害。

這架擊落的蘇愷34，其中一名駕駛員逃生椅故障而被烏克蘭軍擄獲，他表示之前參加過在敘利亞的任務，這是他首次飛到烏克蘭。

Captured Russian Su-34 pilot claims it was his first sortie over Ukraine. It's proven that he was in Syria before and bombed for dictator Assad.

The free Syrian people are finally getting their vengeance!
