At the time the fighter jet was hit in the sky over the Izyum region of eastern Ukraine about 75 miles from Kharkiv. The Russian pilot was captured by the Ukrainian armed force who even managed to intercept a conversation with the Russian military about a possible rescue operation. The Ukraine Air force also tweeted this big success. They destroyed a Russian Su-35 back in April this year, as the Su-35 is on a SEAD mission. The Russian offensive in Ukraine has not been going smoothly as Russian President Vladimir Putin would have hoped.
