A devastating Ukrainian onslaught hit a major Russian aircraft manufacturing plant today triggering a “glow like after a nuclear explosion”.

According to the initial reports, an experimental bulb-nosed A-60 aircraft, known for being equipped with advanced laser weapon systems, had caught fire. The A-60 is a modified airborne platform designed to test directed-energy technologies, and its distinctive bulb-shaped nose houses specialized equipment for these experiments.
