Interesting, oryx has usually been very reliable in the past but there are a few glaring discrepancies in his list. I can see at least a few pictures of double counted losses, and there seems to be comments on that in the article too. For example they show the gear of a downed pilot as proof of a shutdown aircraft (which is true!) But also show the wreckage of the plane he ejected from as another air loss...
The AN transport plane loss is also contested from what ive seen elsewhere. They also don't seem to be listing most confirmed ukrainian losses but that does not necessarily discredit their russian list
But yes it seems my own figure was wrong and outdated by a few days, yet even in the best case scenario we are a very very far cry from the ukrainian figures. It's really not even close, considering they claimed 25 aircraft kills a week ago and most of those pictures are from the past 3 days
