Chornobaivka Airfield: ruZZians Endless Walk on the Same Rake

The helicopters meant to carry the airborne part of the assault lined up at at the Chornobaivka airfield in Kherson. Our artillery struck right there, and in just a few minutes the fleet of choppers that could still fly on their own shrank by 49 machines.

Nothing came out about the crews — the Americans counted through their satellite images, and the smoke covered the charred remains of ruZZian pilots. Our side already counted those “remains with rolled-up sleeves,” so nobody cared much about that detail.

This story is widely known, but it had a second episode. To the same spot, another group of helicopters arrived — smaller, but still significant. Our guys burned that group too, in the “so you don’t have to get up twice” mode. Yet the epic didn’t stop there. A third group of helicopters flew into the Kherson airfield…

The Fifth Time at Chornobaivka Airfield

The third destruction of equipment at the Chornobaivka airfield in Kherson didn’t close the story. The orcs dragged in more hardware again. In fact, the supposed “final” strike turned out to be the fourth hit on ruZZian metal.

Our assumption that one more target gathering would happen at Chornobaivka became the fifth — and on March 18, that’s exactly what happened.

It’s long been said that such things fit a classic scale: once is an accident, twice a coincidence, three times a pattern. That formula usually ends at three. Nobody imagined a fourth, fifth, or even sixth case of stepping on the same rake. But the author of that formula clearly had no clue what “ruZZian” means, let alone “ruZZian military.”

Soviet Ghosts Reborn

By the evening, various sources reported that ruZZian equipment was gathering at Chornobaivka again. The confirming photos didn’t show helicopters. Either the orcs had run so low in numbers that they couldn’t bring them anymore, or they brought them later, after the shot was taken. In any case, it was clear: they gathered there for the fifth time, at the same place.

And here’s what comes to mind: Putin has been desperately trying to reconstruct the Soviet Union. He didn’t succeed everywhere or in everything. But in some places — like this — he sure did.
