Why Russians Do Not Send Another Airborne Warning Aircraft A-50 To Belarus?

Analysis by a Ukrainian military expert.

An air alert was heard all over Ukraine again this morning. In Belarus, the MiG-31K took to the air, but the A-50 do not accompany them this time, Ukrainian military expert Oleksandr Kovalenko noted.

All because the A-50, which "did not receive any damage," flew to 325th Aircraft Repair Plant (Taganrog). But another thing is noteworthy.

After all, the MiG-31K flies without being escorted by the airborne early warning aircraft. But, what prevented the Russians from sending another A-50 to Belarus? After all, they still have 6 out of 8 undamaged ones that are functional. Or even these 6 are not all fully functional for one reason or another? Or do they simply not want to take the risk?

During the war with Ukraine, the Russian air defense has already repeatedly demonstrated its failure and ineffectiveness, so why send another unique A-50 to Belarus to fall asleep with menthyl valerate every night?

No, no, no, it is better to lose a MiG-31 than another FLR!

So, the generals of the "second army of the world" have their seat shrinked to the size of the eye of a needle every time they make a decision. From "reach Kyiv in 3 days" to total constipation in just one year. And there's more to come!
