Developments Jun 18 Russia holds rocket testing drills off Syrian coast, Iran & China hold drills in Strait of Hormuz >Iranian Revolutionary Guard says it launches missile strikes in eastern Syria over IS-claimed attacks in Tehran. US-led Coalition shot down a SyAF fighter jet (SU-22) south of Tabqa city Raqqa: Clashes between SAA and SDF >SAA controls Iraqi border all the way to DeZ province >SAA blitzes ISIS in Syrian Desert, reach DeZ prov, cut al-Qaim-Sukhnah Road >Raqqa: Tigers now at outskirts of Resafa, SDF races to block Tiger advance >Raqqa: US casualties piling up to 26, extensive use of SOFs >Unconfirmed: SDF to be sent to Tanf border crossing >IS claims bombing in Damascus, 7 killed >Al-Waleed Iraqi/Syrian border crossing secured by PMU >2 objects intercepted above Hmeimim AB by Russian Air Defence >Tiger forces liberate 14 villages, advancing east in south Raqqa CS >US military deploys long-range missiles to combat the SAA in border region
Can someone explain why the jet was shot down? Was it just because the US is jealous of the gains or what? What was the motivation?

God bless russian aerospace designers For the sexiest and sleekest things to fly

Firing on or too close to (((((((SDF))))))) forces
Nathan Wilson
This map says the Tiger Forces overran a "deescalation zone".
Alexander Reyes
So. US hornet shot down Syrian su22. K*rds capture Syrian pilot. Iran fire middle range ballistic missiles. Syrian army approach Deir Ezzor.
Kurds best (((allies))) arw sending thier shills over from /trumptard general\/
Ryan Diaz
No idea tbqh, Assad kept the Tabqa gains so far, doubt it will slow him down.

#Military sources to me: >Resafa taken by SAA
Jack Garcia
SAA captured Rusafa and started an offensive from Ithriyah along the highway to Tabqa.
Sebastian Gray
No the map shows the Tiger forces overran ISIS positions. The blue are Deescalation while the grey blobs with black outlines are ISIS controlled areas
Eli Ramirez
Slow down SAA advance so SDF could steal a town in their path and block them. Also cockwaving to make them less daring, but not giving the pilot back resulted in the Tigers snapping and assaulting them directly.

It's not hate, just misconceptions about nuke subs are plentiful. Diesel subs are great if you can't/don't want to afford a nuke program.
High pressure systems don't cativate
Liam Foster
Well, in that case it means there are no ISIS strongpoints between Resafa and Deir Ez Zor, so after they sweep out and take back all those oil and gas fields Legio V Accipiter can take Suknah and then Deir can just be casually driven up to.
Dominic Parker
Because all of our military equipment runs on jet fuel as its main source of power and diesel is a secondary fuel type they can use.
Yeah, unless you knew the battlelines when that map was drawn up the colors look way too similar
Jaxon Miller
They should go back to their thread and not shit up our ones We are the general of peace
William Collins
I'd say it was a combination of crushing and drowning.
Evan Jones
Gangsta. Still, this shows how desperate the Americans are right now. If directly skirmishing did nothing then they're running out of options short of open war to stop the SAA advance.
Mind that Kurds and Americans are like fucking children and legitimately would not mind starting war over not exactly getting their way.
Michael Powell
Wanna add that this map isnt really confirmed yet
Connor Morgan
>but not giving the pilot back resulted in the Tigers snapping and assaulting them directly. I hope the SDF suffered a lot of casualties.

Do they not cavitate at all or do they just not get damaged due to supercavitation?
Colton Anderson
Not to mention most normies think they have cause to topple assad because of the poison gas meme forced by the Trump admin and MSM.
Aw snap when did SOHR go against the US in Syria? >Syrian 'Opposition' Outlet SOHR: 'The Syrian Air Force Fighter-Bomber DID NOT attack SDF forces near Resafah' syriahr.com/en/?p=68314

USN doctrine relies heavily on carrier battle groups which is fine for now for force projection against second and third world countries, but they would get btfo once a real war broke out
Joseph Jackson
>huge if true Very nice, hope it represents reality
Carter Richardson
They don't supercaticavate because the turbine is not moving that fast, they don't cativate because the pressure does not allow the bubble to form.
Daniel Phillips
And SAA captured 5 k*rds
>SAA claim captured 5 SDF/YPG members during clashes in Jaidin village south of Raqqa Syria
Carson Barnes
Suheil literally gave the order "get the pilot back at all costs". SAA have evidently taken the town and several others from the SDF and things seem to be back to normal somehow.
Austin Taylor
Hoholmaps is saying it might be true So it probably is

Evan Gutierrez
Supposedly firing on or near American aligned Kurds.
My point is that I did not participate in any raid nor break any rules. Quite hypocritical.
Samuel Collins
But the Rafale is a piece of shit
Colton Evans
Stop replying to the /ptg/ fags no one in /sg/ has anything to prove to them. Let them worry about their own mental gymnastics.
James Barnes
So steam turbines are high pressure/low speed? That weird, I would think they should operate at high RPMs
Colton Ortiz
But the Rafale is not very aesthetic, Greekbro.
Angel Davis
daww, it's a eurotriangle
Christopher Reed
He means the water pressure.
Chase Bennett
Kurds are subhuman opportunists, 'merica just got the call from mossad
What benefit does Mossad draw from killing one old jet?

>zero reports that SDF captured Ja'din >reports that SAA captured it >half a day passes,no reports of clashes with the SDF,no protest from the SDF >then the coalition sperges out
There's really nothing on the ground to back up Pentagon narrative
Lucas Nguyen
High rpms=/supercaticavation.
It's high enough to work, but the pressure prevents normal cativation.
Just curious, is it against the rules to post an American pepe here? There are Americans in Syria and involved in the Syrian conflict, no?
Just wanted to clarify.
But what tangible benefit does that draw for anyone?

twitter.com/Gjoene/status/876715682712489985 >Both SOHR and ANHA claim that #SyAAF did not target any #SDF position prior to #SU22 shotdown. US statement is false. US lied once again
Aiden Taylor
Let me see if I got this right >SAA is advancing quicker than SDF likes >SDF decides that this town in the path of the SAA assault is in a deconfliction zone they need to occupy to cut them off >SAA hitting ISIS targets there with SU-22, SDF shoots it down to confuse/slow down their advance under the pretext they're defending territory that just recently magically became theirs >SDF take town amidst confusion, refuse to give injured pilot back >Tigers snap and mow through them, pushing them back to their own borders and continuing offensive as if nothing happened
That right? If so their move was desperate as fuck and completely pointless.
Luke Cooper
>the US lied Surprising
Jackson Watson
It seems that's basically what happened, yes. But then again, no one ever said that Kurds were smart.
Ryan Jones
so the pilot is alive? any pics?
Christian Bell
American serving their zog overlords
Luke Edwards
According to this tweet twitter.com/Gjoene/status/876716099143946240 ANHA claims that the jet flew over SDF positions which is fairly common because of how close the SAA and Kurds are
Lincoln Thompson
Create US puppet state in the region Iraq isnt the most loyal Give Kurds a land, them will polish your dick till the end of time
I'll go look in to more matters, I was just wondering what would be gained strategically by some conspiracy to shoot down a jet. Thanks for the input I guess.
Leo Williams
This is the end. My only friend, the end.
Robert Harris
There are mixed reports that the pilot is alive with a broken leg and that he's dead, but I recently woke up because I tried to sleep through the cancerous shill storm of the past 9 or so hours so my info might be outdated.

Let's see if the SDF are able to use the same revolutionary and unpredictable tactic the SAA did in al-Tanf : going off-road
Blake Baker
They dont want to admit that assad broke the rules by attacking US allies and paid the price. Simple as that.
Isaac Nguyen
That is because your country is a meme of a country.

>Lidar only works in shallow, non murky waters. >It can't reach sub depths, and your PDF was clear about this. Current, publicly available systems designed for oceanographic studies without any level of classification commonly don't give accurate results beyond 50m depth*
>Having every LIDAR program established since the Gulf War mostly focusing on mine countermeasures, a more submarine-directed program was established in 2003-04 called Claymore Marine. U.S. Congress directed the funding and further development of this specific ASW-system, with testing reportedly commencing in 2005-06. Claymore Marine is meant to be a new littoral ASW system, which integrates the previously developed ATD-111 airborne ASW and mine hunting system with new signal processing algorithms to achieve a significant increase in performance (Congress 2004). The system is a non-acoustic, environmentally friendly, airborne laser, submarine detection system specifically used for shallow water and harsh environments where acoustic detectors do not work well. Congress specifically asked the U.S. Navy to build a new state-of-the-art prototype system to support additional target testing and performance validation in 2005. The Committee on Armed Services has been optimistic about the program succeeding, and has continued to fund the development of the system(Congress 2005).Reportedly, as of 2008 the U.S. Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) was seeking to expand the role of ALMDS into other missions including ASW, surface warfare 79and U.S. Coast Guard missions. NAVSEA has stated that the current configuration could be integrated on fixed-wing ASW platforms such as the P-3 Orion and the future P-8 Poseidon(Jane’s 2008). One is optimistic about the system being able to stay efficient despite the increase in altitude and forward air speed
Logan Peterson
See It wasn't some grand strategy, just a cockwaving show of force and bit of tactical aid for the SDF.
