Su-35 gone, reportedly falling victim to an AIM-120 carried by an F-16.
Cheap exchange for Ukraine (missile cost <500,000 USD v fighter cost 50,000,000+ USD). Never mind, Russia still has a bit of money left to buy another one. Better be quick, though, before the money is all gone.

Germany is allocating an additional €1.9 billion in military aid to the €7 billion previously budgeted. This was announced by Defense Minister Boris Pistorius, who arrived in Kyiv today.

In total, Germany's military aid in 2025 will amount to €8.9 billion, setting a new record for Berlin. It's important to note that before Friedrich Merz came to power, €4 billion was budgeted for aid to Ukraine for 2025. Thanks to constitutional amendments initiated by Merz, Germany managed to expand defense loans and secure an additional €3 billion for Ukraine. And now Germany announced another €1.9 billion. This is thanks to one specific person, elected at the right time in the right place.

It remains unknown what exactly the new €1.9 billion will be allocated for, but a three-year plan is being developed for the supply of Iris-T air defense systems. A journalist also asked today whether Taurus deliveries are planned, and Pistorius responded that they are not.

They do both. About $5 Billion worth of donated military equipment this year and another $2.2 Billion funded via a loan.

It makes sense to fund the Ukrainians in any way possible.

Footage of a Russian FPV drone attacking a rare Ukrainian hybrid APC. The Ukrainian APC is unique, as it was created on the chassis of the Soviet-made 2S19 Msta-S self-propelled gun.

The most important system is still Patriots. Patriot is a more advanced, longer range and can intercept ballistic missiles. IRIS-T has difficulty with ballistic missiles, though allegedly they're working on upgrades to enable IRIS-T to be able to shoot down ballistic missiles.

I think so, yes. Air defense remains the top request Ukrainians make of allies, and IRIS-T is one of the better options from Europe that Ukraine operates. The other main requested ones are SAMP/T (France/Italy) and NASAMS (Norway).
