Zvezda News (Russia) dropped a video of a pair of Su-25 attack aircraft "destroying Ukrainian targets."

I've located their departure so far; follow along to see. But first, the video:
Departure base is Dzhankoi Air Base, northern Crimea, from runway 5: 45.704516407968455, 34.42904810893908 ImageImageImage
I've also Geolocated the spot this pair of Russian Su-25's launched rockets from:

They overflew the village of Bruskynske, Kherson oblast, firing toward or across the Inhulets river.

Pink box is 47.162214, 33.196270:

@GeoConfirmed ImageImageImageImage
@GeoConfirmed The pair of Russian Su-25's did cross the Dnipro River at about 46.991155, 33.617039 on the way to make their attack run: ImageImage
Video of the Russian Su-25's over Kherson region from this thread archived with details here:

Maps like this show why Russian Su-25's or any attack aircraft, for that matter, were firing on the area of the Kherson front at Davydiv Brid/Bruskynske...

...Ukrainian Army broke through. This tells me the Su-25 video is pretty recent.

Green line added for Su-25 path from vid. Image
This again is the area Russian Su-25s were targeting on Kherson last week and perhaps over the weekend:

More pieces to what is happening on the ground coming together.

Time again to #Geolocate a Russian Su-25 random rocket run!

Russia MoD released this video showing multiple Su-25's over southern Ukraine.

Their departure point is the same at Dzhankoi, Crimea--see top of this thread.

Here is the video:

Notable for context that the Su-25's fired toward area of Dudchany, as this map indicates based on the flight path (red line).

Vitebsk L370 IR jamming pods appear installed:

Sentinel-2 spots of aircraft on 3 and 6 Oct. let us draw a full route for these Russian strike missions on Kherson front.

Both spots are near village of Markeiev, 46.5206660, 34.0485530.

Thread: Russia is constructing a new airfield about 9km west of the heart of Alexeyevka, a military logistics hub in Belgorod region. In July, 2023 a road was cut to the location, and by the start of winter grading for the runway appeared mostly complete.

After the winter thaw, work has resumed. On 27 April 2024 a base layer or paving itself is ongoing on the runway.

The animated image shows this work starting around the beginning of April.

Sentinel Hub measures the runway at about 1800 meters. It is not huge, but can support various types of aircraft. Here is where speculation begins… Image

Geolocation thread: Shoigu Training Inspection

In this thread I have geolocated where Russian defense minister Shoigu inspected training in the Southern Military District.

Footage is from Telegram, which is the first video John linked below:
@GeoConfirmed @UAControlMap
Shoigu boarded his helicopter at the air base in Rostov on Don. This scene (start 0:01) was on the ramp at approximately 47.27391, 39.63350.

The camera pointed east-southeast, with airfield equipment, fixed-wing aircraft, and large buildings in Rostov on Don visible:
Image
Image
There are two scenes (0:04 and 0:15) showing the helicopter in flight. Both are of the same area, but are out of order in the MoD video. They are northeast of Rostov on Don, crossing a road at 47.41947, 40.00992.
0:15: Approaching Road
0:04: Crossing Road

Geolocation thread:

Russian Ministry of Defense published this video of a Ka-52 firing a guided missile in Ukraine.

I’ve geolocated where it fired from.

Let’s take a look:

https://t.co/o2WflDwGT8t.me/mod_russia_en/…
This Russian Ka-52 fired its guided missile between Horlivka and Bakhmut, Donetsk region.

It fired over the northern part of Zaitseve village, at 48.43004, 38.02046.

@GeoConfirmed @UAControlMap

Image
Other helicopters that have operated in this area came from the destroyed Luhansk international airport.

While the scenes showing the helicopter taking off and landing do not show landmarks, I have little doubt this Ka-52 is based there.

Geolocation Thread:

There is a lot to pull from this short 38 second video from Russian MoD today showing a Ka-52 helicopter in Ukraine.

Let us see what information can be found:

@GeoConfirmed @UAControlMap
First, this Russian Ka-52 helicopter is shown departing Taganrog air base, Russia. This one operates from the southeastern ramp.

Note the metal building at 47.24317, 38.85622 (0:03), and signs along ramp wall at 47.24196, 38.85556 (0:35): ImageImageImageImage
There is one firing point in this video seen by different cameras.

As it pulls up to loft unguided rockets, the forward dash camera caught this mound at 48.00781, 37.64314 (0:26): ImageImageImage

Geolocation Thread:

There seem to be few videos of Russian ground attack aircraft from Millerovo air base, Russia.

With heads up from @_davemorrison, two videos sourcing from Russian MoD came out this week.

These are from Telegram and are footage from the same flight: twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
As the Russian Su-25 starts taxiing, you can see the buildings behind the Millerovo ramp at 48.95107, 40.30409.

They have been painted since Google’s imagery of the base.

Time stamp: 0:29 t.me/btr80/7236 ImageImage
On departure the Su-25 pair turned left from Runway 08 westbound toward Ukraine.

Here is that path:

1st image: 0:42 t.me/mod_russia/267…
2nd image: 0:39 t.me/btr80/7236
3rd image: I overlayed the cockpit view to Google Earth. ImageImageImageImage
