I totally missed all the Ukraine modifications of the su 25. Ha. Perhaps the witnesses were seeing an su-25M1.

I'm fine too, thanks.
But Russia has shared their radar data, if there were fighter jets nearby they would have been seen on radar.
The other point is that the front nose of the aircraft was not hit, above all, what is being discarded over and over again is the message from Igor on his twitter and his VK.
The AN-26 turned out to be a B777 with 298 souls on board.
Python-5 missiles were delivered along with Spyder systems to the Indian Air Force, Georgian Air Force, Republic of Singapore Air Force and Peruvian Army.
Now what has our PM got to do with it? do you think he is the one leading the investigation? of course not.
There have been so many witness accounts of fighter jets being in the air at that time, I don't believe one thing about Kiev claiming them not being around.
How would you know? It seems that they do take those risks all of the time. There has been more than one Ukrainian jet blown out of the sky. Warfare, it can be dangerous.

Ignoring someone who has flown on airfraft themselves a few times and knows many in the military life is very poor form.
The R-60 is heat seeking. Whats the hottest thing on the aircraft? ENgines. your clear bias is showing. And They do not directly hit a aircraft unless they have a promimity failure.
intelligence agencies believe Ukrainian separatists shot down a Malaysia Airlines passenger jet by mistake, possibly by misreading fuzzy radar images on a sophisticated surface-to-air missile launcher provided by Russia, senior U.S. intelligence officials said Tuesday.
