Well-known defense expert Ilya Tumanov confirmed the loss of two Su-34 aircraft as a result of an attack by the Navy of the Armed Forces of Ukraine with Neptune cruise missiles at the Marinovka airport. On the way Tumanov demands to keep the remaining parties away from the front line. From Marinovka to Kramatorsk and Kopiansk is more than 450 kilometers, but even this distance is no longer considered safe for aviation on the Russian front line. There is no need to talk about strategic bomb carriers that had to be based in the Far East and fly to the European part of the Russian Federation before direct attacks. If we recall the first stages of a full-scale war, the Russians had a wide network of airfields in the occupied territories and areas bordering Ukraine. However, Ukrainian strikes continually forced Russian aircraft to retreat to increasingly distant positions. Of course, this affects both the ability of the Russian armed forces to respond to Ukraine's operations and increases the strain on airlift resources.
