Maybe raw materials are not there to build back hull fast enough for now. Mariupol was a big hub to sort out these and got flattened.

Claimed destruction of a Ukrainian MiG-29 by an R-37M missile from a Russian MiG-31.

At least 1 dead but at the time of reporting there were only injuries.
Was trying to glean the range from the small range dots and Yefim Gordon's book. Given that BM is using Zaslon AM. said to have increased acquisition range to 320 Km. Which i take to be the maximum instrumented range.
The video depicts 2 screens. Left which is a PPI (Plan Position Indicator) scope, and depicts target angular position vs range, the pink cone is the weapon employement envelope, it changes in size as the radar computes the relevant envelope in real time according to target speed and headings. The screen on the right is the Azimuth-Elevation scope or C-scope depicts target azimuth and elevation relative to the MiG's.
The target is hit somewhere in 110-125 Km range.
Well that's BVR for you people. All can be seen is synthesized information from Radar scope. This is why kill confirm is difficult.
Somewhere in 00:50 there are some weird yellow dots and lines in right screen. This probably indication that missile is away.
It has pretty high kinetic energy at terminal phase. It's like 150 km / h. The net cannot stop it much.
I thought yellow dots were clutter in radar, flock of birds maybe. Then an algorithm in the radar suppressed its signal.
There is indeed clutter in the C-scope. The one i think as missile launch Indicator was this Big thing in red box
Destroyed Ukrainian 2S3 Akasya
Grad MLRS landing at Ukrainian positions near destroyed Kherson bridge.
The next Road of Life? Footage captured by Ukrainian soldier on vehicle devastation. I believe this to be the supply route to Avdiivka.
Ukrainian DRG hit by ATGM in Bakhmut area.
Ukrainian position hit by ATGM in Berestovaya.
Another Ukrainian squad taken out by ATGM in Andreevka.
Ukrainian troop position on forest line hit by artillery or mortar in Andreevka area, now under heavy Russian counterattack.
Ukrainian boat gets bombed by quadcopter drone. No casualties but the number of Ukrainian boats for this beachhead operation is limited, and the less boats, the less you can use to resupply, reinforce and evacuate the wounded.
Ukrainian pickup in evacuation mission at Synkovka gets hit by Russian FPV drone.
Ukrainians hit a construction company in Mariupol hard. Damage is extensive indicating use of missiles. However there's nothing to indicate the target having military significance.
Two aerial kills by Russian SAMs in the Vremevsky region.
TOS hits on Ukrainian positions in Nikolskogo.
Ukrainian recruitment raids now targeting elite restaurants in Kiev.

Looks like MiG-31 got a heavy upgrade since its 1980s days.
