Was 6, became 5 ": Russians stated that they knocked down the first F-16 but there is a nuance (photo)

The invaders began to talk about one destroyed western fighter and posted a photo with alleged "confirmation" of this information. However, this frame was much earlier published by Western media. The Russian invaders declared the first-bearing F-16 western fighter in Ukraine. The publication of the destruction of the Western fighter was spread by Z-Telegrams. "The first flew. X*hung, riddle: it was 6, it became 5,"-wrote one of the Russian telegrams.

In support of this, the author of the publication posted a photo of the destroyed F-16. The allegedly knocked out aircraft fell to the ground and started in the middle of the field. Destroyed by the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation in Ukraine, the first F-16 was the US Air Force, which fell on October 22, 2014 in Kansas. The fighter was damaged and his pilot was then able to catapult. It should be reminded that on July 31 it became known that Ukraine received the first batch of F-16 fighters.
