Russia shoots down its own Su-35 fighter jet<\/h3>\n

Russian air defense troops have shot down one of the most advanced fighter jets in frontline service with the Russian Aerospace Forces.<\/p>\n

Russian propagandist Ilya Tumanov confirmed on his influential Fighterbomber channel that the Russian Armed Forces has lost another modern Su-35 fighter jet.<\/p>\n

Unconfirmed reports say the Su-35 was shot down over Tokmak last night in a friendly-fire incident.<\/p>\n

The baseline Su-35 borrows the airframe of the Su-27 fighter but adds a new digital fly-by-wire flight control system, three-dimensional thrust vectoring nozzles and uprated AL-41F1S engines pumping out roughly 32,000 pounds of thrust each.<\/p>\n

The supersonic fighter jet is armed with a 30-millimeter cannon and has 12 hardpoints and can detect targets at more than 400 kilometers, while its radar can track up to 30 targets simultaneously. The fighter has a range in excess of 3,500 kilometers without refueling.<\/p>\n

The heavy class, long-range, multi-role one-seat fighter has a maximum speed of 1,500 mph, similar to the F-22 Raptor and has an operational range of 1,940 nautical miles at high altitude.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Teen Dies After Slamming Into Concrete Beam In Parking Garage While Sticking Head Out Of Sunroof<\/h3>\n

A Canadian teenager died Thursday afternoon after hitting a concrete beam while standing up in the sunroof of a moving car as it was cruising through a mall\u2019s parking garage in Edmonton, Canada.<\/p>\n

The Edmonton Police told TMZ that the car was moving under a ramp when the 18-year-old in question stood up and struck a beam. Paramedics rushed to the scene and quickly moved him to a hospital but the teenager ultimately succumbed to his injuries, the outlet reported.<\/p>\n

Police revealed that there were other persons in the car, Global News reported. The 17-year-old driver and a 15-year-old female passenger were uninjured, the outlet noted.<\/p>\n

Neither drugs, speeding or alcohol are suspected of causing the fatal collision, Edmonton Police said in a press release.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Drug Dealer Calls Cops To Report A Theft<\/h3>\n

When working in the field of illegal drug sales, it is never a good idea to contact police to complain that a customer robbed you.<\/p>\n

Cops say that Eric Thomas, 33, \u201ccalled police in reference to a theft\u201d Friday in Largo, a city in the Tampa Bay, Florida area.<\/p>\n

Upon being contacted by officers, Thomas \u201cstated he was selling marijuana, and someone stole $10 from him while attempting to sell it.\u201d While reporting the theft, Thomas had 11 baggies of pot in his hands, according to an arrest affidavit.<\/p>\n

In the Free State of Florida, it remains illegal to possess marijuana with the intent to sell it.<\/p>\n

Thomas \u201cmade spontaneous statements about getting robbed while attempting to sell the marijuana,\u201d reported Officer Ricardo Morales, who noted that Thomas was holding more than 40 grams of pot when collared.<\/p>\n

During a post-arrest search of Thomas, cops reportedly found two baggies containing cocaine in his wallet.<\/p>\n

Pictured above, Thomas was charged with a pair of drug felonies and booked into the county jail, where he remains locked up in lieu of $7000 bond.<\/p>\n

In the past year, Thomas has been convicted of marijuana, cocaine, and battery counts. In a pending case, Thomas has been accused of possessing seven Ziploc baggies of marijuana. The pot was discovered when Thomas emptied his pockets into a clear plastic tray at a court security checkpoint.<\/p>\n

Thomas–who reportedly admitted the pot was meant for sale–was at the Pinellas County Justice Center last month \u201cto see the clerk of courts,\u201d cops noted.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Canadian air force investigate \u2018inappropriate\u2019 CF-18 call sign<\/h3>\n

The Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) says it\u2019s investigating an \u201cinappropriate and unapproved\u201d call sign that was broadcast by a military pilot in the United Kingdom on Monday.<\/p>\n

A Canadian researcher posted on social media Monday a screenshot of a flight tracking website that showed a CF-18 Hornet flying in the U.K. with the call sign \u201cD*CK69.\u201d Steffan Watkins said in the post on X, formerly known as Twitter, it seemed the pilot turned on a transponder that broadcasted that call sign, rather than its assigned one.<\/p>\n

Watkins shared a link to a flight tracking website which displayed the call sign.<\/p>\n

The RCAF spokesperson said the incident is under investigation.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Royal Canadian Air Force is aware of an inappropriate and unapproved aircraft identifier that was transmitted electronically by one of our CF-18 Hornets currently deployed to the United Kingdom,\u201d the spokesperson said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe incident is under investigation so additional details about what transpired cannot be provided at this time. The RCAF expects all members to display the highest standards of integrity and professionalism, and to exercise good judgment at all times.\u201d<\/p>\n

This isn\u2019t the first incident of controversial call signs within the RCAF.<\/p>\n

In December 2022, two military officers were handed reprimands and minor suspensions of pay for failing to enforce the military\u2019s orders on preventing and addressing sexual misconduct.<\/p>\n

The charges and disciplinary actions stemmed from an informal meeting known as a \u201ccall sign review board\u201d on June 22 of that year at one of Canada\u2019s two main fighter jet bases, 4 Wing Cold Lake in Alberta.<\/p>\n

Former fighter pilots described such review boards as informal meetings after major training exercises or operations in which pilots assign nicknames, or call signs, to newer members over drinks.<\/p>\n

The RCAF that during the meeting in June, several fighter pilots proposed, discussed and assigned an \u201cinappropriate\u201d call sign for another pilot.<\/p>\n

The Liberal government has promised reforms in the Canadian military after a scathing report in May 2022 called the armed forces a \u201cbroken system\u201d that is a \u201cliability\u201d to the country.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
