Strike on Russian Aircraft Plant Destroys Two Ultra-Rare Beriev Test Platforms Aviation News – A Ukrainian strike has destroyed two rare Russian experimental aircraft at the Beriev manufacturing and repair plant in Taganrog, dealing a significant blow to Moscow’s airborne early warning development efforts. Satellite imagery shows severe damage to the facility, which supports Russia’s Beriev A-50 Mainstay fleet, and confirms the loss of two Ilyushin Il-76–based platforms. Analysis of historical ground and aerial images indicates the aircraft were the unique Beriev A-60 and the reportedly modified A-100LL, both key assets in Russia’s advanced sensor and laser research programs.
