They probably didn't reload because it was almost immediately known they had hit an airliner.
I'd suspect the mindset would quickly change from trying to enforce sovereignty over their airspace to covering up the mess and seeing how they could displace the blame. By removing the missile system and picking the scene…

trying to sanitize the scene? How very Russian....
...and again I quote honest trailers: "shouldn't this guy be out curing cancer or something?"
I'm curious how difficult these systems are to use.
They said they might have been stolen from Ukraine, but even if I get a guided weapon in my hands most people don't know much about using them. I'd have thought it would take specialist knowledge (the kind that could also differentiate military and civilian…
Left in a boneyard to slowly rot, then the weather does them in... what a waste.
She's a Japanese Kaiju, so when a japanese person says it they'd be right to pronounce it their way.
Wow, Zelda as a girl.
What's the world coming to...
Wow, I never new Zeldas name was Link.
Its difficult to know what percentage of rapes are falsely reported because the vast majority of criminal incidents are entirely unreported. There's alot of shame and social pressure that prevent people from putting the crime into a police report (and I say "people" because its a crime that can happen to either sex…
The problem was the lack of torque.
Add more.
Might just be my uninitiated eyeball, but that platform is wobbling way too much to be used for precision anything.
I probably know less about radar than anyone here, but as I understand it this is like trying to pick out a black dot on a screen full of static. A quickly moving small dot isn't any easier to differentiate on a screen full of randomly appearing dots.
Assuming the enemy radar is tracking objects as small as seagulls and not filtering them out as noise.
They were just thinking too far ahead. All the stats were ripe for a shift to stick control, but the market was far from ready.
I've wondered that myself.
I don't think automated drones are going to be zooming buy and suddenly say "OPPORTUNITY!" halfway through their programmed flight path. But a more powerful, more agile, and easier to control helicopter (the kind you'd design for automation) in the hands of a human pilot is a scary…
Not normal, but it happens.
The Space Shuttle is probably the most famous, and similar, example of one aircraft (well, spacecraft) being made to do too many different jobs. To a lesser extent we've seen a number of multirole attempts before, like with the F-111.
The F-35 is the first to try and replace all fighter and…
If this thing ever sees production or export, I wonder what it means to the future of the F-35 program. Alot of customers are ready to make do with a single role VS a multirole that never seems to get out the door.
