S 70

4 built, and possibly more . 2601:447:CA81:B9B0:2037:4B8A:6155:5610 (talk) 02:17, 6 October 2024 (UTC):[reply]

Ok. We need a reliable source in order to update the article. Do you have one? --McSly (talk) 02:22, 6 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Last paragraph is pure opinion from one "source"

I´m sorry, but the last paragraph is pure speculation, not to mention that it is based entirely on the speculation/opinion of a single "source", repeated over and over again. "Source" who really seems to know little to nothing about aviation technology, and his article seems to have been written from scraps of Wikipedia, seasoned with his biased opinion, including totally erroneous parts and zero evidence, which I will not list. In fact, the only "valid" thing in the entire Forbes article is the ability to better understand the shape of the aircraft, but even this is unnecessary, since there are more than enough videos and photos with useful references to infer all the measurements. Instead of such a "source of opinion", a serious, recognized and above all PROFESSIONAL source SPECIALIZED in aviation technologies should be used, when such a source publishes something about it.. 152.206.189.159 (talk) 03:42, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The 4 types of territory more or less relevant to the downed S-70

Logically, there are 4 types of territory can be be considered in the context of the downed S-70:

1A) Territory that is Ukraine (as per its internationally recognized borders) and that is currently _not_ occupied by Russia.
1B) Territory that is Ukraine (as per its internationally recognized borders) and that is currently occupied by Russia.
2A) Territory that is Russia (as per its internationally recognized borders) and that is currently _not_ occupied by Ukraine.
2B) Territory that is Russia (as per its internationally recognized borders) and that is currently occupied by Ukraine.

1A) is where the downed S-70 crashed.

1B) is only about a dozen km from where the downed S-70 landed and the S-70 flew over 1B)-type territory, so the distinction between 1A) and 1B) is important.

2A) is where the downed S-70 took off from. It is on the border of Kazakhstan, almost 600km from the front and is not at risk of becoming occupied by Ukraine.

2B) is as such not relevant to the downed S-70.

As such, it is not helpful to indicate that the S-70 took off from "Russian-controlled territory".

As for the S-70 crash site, the information that the UAV had crossed the front line should make it self-evident that with a crash site in "Ukraine", the type of territory is 1A), i.e. _not_ occupied by Russia. Trying to very accurately specify 1A) with a formulation like "Ukrainian controlled part of Ukraine" seems overly cumbersome and unnecessary.

Further, describing the crash site as "Ukranian-controlled territory" makes it possible for a reader to mistake it to mean territory of type 2B), i.e. Russian territory currently occupied by Ukraine. So this should be avoided.

Editors are asked to please take this into consideration when attempting to improve on the article. Thanks. Lklundin (talk) 19:01, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
