1/ The use of a Russian bomb to send a protest to the Russian Ministry of Defence over non-payment of bonus pay has set off a furore in the Russian Air Force, with an entire unit reportedly stood down and undergoing an "epic fucking for about 8 hours". ⬇️

2/ The Fighterbomber Telegram channel reports on the inevitable repercussions of the airmens' protest: everyone who within reach of the senior command was punished.
3/ "In short, after the bomb became unbearable and it clearly and understandably suggested that the separate headquarters and commanders do not have full information about what is happening in the military units entrusted to them, do not know the current needs and aspirations…
4/ …of the fighters and are engaged in the usual deception and misleading their immediate commanders, reporting that 'everything is fine, there are no problems', these same top commanders began to sort things out.
5/ "And the villages have been burning for three days. Preparation for combat flights is fucked, everyone is writing explanatory notes.
6/ "Since, as is well known, "there are no fools sitting at the top", these same non-fools recognized the bomb in the photo as a FAB-3000 with an UMPK [glide kit], which they immediately reported to their leadership.
7/ "This bomb is used by only one, well-known unit, which was immediately subjected to epic fucking for about 8 hours, during which the unit tearfully persuaded the fools upstairs to open their eyes,…
8/ … to ask someone who could tell them that the photo a mass-produced OFAB-250 with UMPK, which is nowadays used by everyone without exception.
Miraculously, they managed to do this in just 24 hours.

9/ "The rest is a matter of technique. Not finding the perpetrators, according to tradition, culprits were immediately appointed.
The perpetrators were the crew, who had nothing to do with these inscriptions, which they certified in documents in the form of explanatory notes.

10/ "But since the perpetrator should have been uncovered long ago, the motherfucking dismantlers didn't give a damn about all these little things.
The crew was suspended from flights (combat operations), and in a couple of days they must appear before the bright eyes of HIMSELF.

11/ "Meanwhile, people in the audience are telling us that non-payments have already been discovered in two air armies (not counting the infantry, which no one even mentioned in the showdowns), …
12/ …that in addition to the bombers, the fighter aircraft [pilots] did not receive additional pay either, but non-payments are different. There, non-payments are more likely to fuck the investigators than they are to fuck them.
13/ "Therefore, the crew of the fighter-bombers was sacrificed in order for the servicemen in the Air Force (and maybe in the entire army) to start receiving the required cash payments.
14/ "I hope representatives of the military prosecutor's office and military counterintelligence will at least talk to this crew before and after the conversation, to assess the scale of the fucked up situation and the epic nature of the investigation into this terrible crime.
15/ "And the inscription appeared by itself. The icons are streaming myrrh. How are bombs worse?
16/ "Of course, our military will carry out their assigned tasks without these payments, and generally for free, and in some places they even pay themselves to carry them out efficiently, but That. Not. Should Be." /end
