3M14 Kalibr LACM, fired by the Russian Navy.
Upon further inspection, it may also be a 9M728 Ground Launched Cruise Missile, notice the same Air intake. The Navy LACM seems to lack that.
A side note, there is no such thing as Iskander-K. The 9P78-1 TEL of the Iskander-M system can launch both 9M728 GLCM and 9M723 SRBM.
Every time I think I understand Russian missiles, I am proven wrong haha. Great ID by Blueboy.

Can't tell if it's a MiG-series or Su-series.

Time will tell.
Two pilots ejected safely. From my understanding Ukrainian MiG-29's and Ukrainian S-27's are single seat aircraft.

So this is likely a Russian Su-series, Su-30 or Su-34 maybe?
One of the pilots has been captured. Based on his...uhm...shape and attire I'm willing to bet he's semi-high ranking and not just a captain or major.

I remember very well how in early 2018, and again in 2019, the whole defence industry community was shocked when Israel knocked out Syrian military-operated Pantsir-S1 SAMs.

It was claimed these were early models, crews were poorly trained, or that the system was turned off. ImageImage
Then, throughout 2020, Turkish drones know knocked them out in Libya and Syria. This time operated by Emirati-backed Libyans or Syrians.

Again, same aforementioned arguments were used. ImageImageImage
During the now infamous 2nd Karabakh war Russian-made, Armenian operated SAM sites were completely decimated by Azerbaijani troops with UCAVs and loitering munitions.

Systems like S-300, Tor, Strela-10, Osa were destroyed. Again, the operators were blamed. ImageImageImageImage

In Irpin, Russian VDV units were absolutely wrecked by Ukrainian special forces today. At least four BMD-2 IFVs were destroyed alongside half a dozen if not more soldiers were killed.
Another angle showing all four knocked out BMD-2's. Lots of dead can be seen too.

Ukrainian TDF and proper Armed Forces personnel are conducting very effective ambushes in urban areas, as expected.
Another angle of the carnage in Irpin today.

Russian military personnel, likely from the 4th Guards Tank Brigade, abandoned a 9K332 Tor-M2 TLAR...

You can't make this shit up.
Tank division*
I believe this Tor-M2 is from the 4th Guards Tank Division, 538th Guards Anti-Air Rocket Regiment.
