Ukraine Waited for Russia’s Tu-160 and Il-78 in Engels Air Base — Then BLEW It All Up Ukraine executed a calculated UAV operation at Engels Air Base, fooling Russian air defenses before striking high-value assets. Tu-160 bombers, Il-78 tankers, radar sites, and fuel infrastructure were hit after Russia misjudged the threat. Cheap drones forced expensive defenses to react, opening fatal gaps. The result: massive losses for Russia at minimal cost for Ukraine. Timeline: 00:00 – Intro 02:16 – TB2 loiters, mapping radar cycles and Pantsir logistics patterns. 05:04 – TB2 disables Pantsir resupply convoy, collapsing reload endurance. 08:15 – Low-altitude UAVs force Pantsir into sustained defensive fire. 10:03 – Pantsir coverage fragments as ammunition depletion creates engagement gaps. 11:10 – S-400 reduces emissions, repositions, exposing short-range defense window. 13:06 – UAVs penetrate, radar and fuel infrastructure neutralized through cost exhaustion. 15:14 – Outro Disclaimer: This channel is intended purely for educational, informational, and entertainment purposes.
