Its no smoking accident, more like a Harpoon or some other missile attack.

Too far, I believe for HIMARS o'clock...

This is a BFD and maybe just the start...

Satellite images of the Saky airfield in Crimea, made yesterday at 11.10 am, show that more than 30 planes and helicopters were there before the explosion - worth more than $1 billion in total.

It would take over 18 months to replace them even without the sanctions.
