Comment
The only TB2 of the daily regulars -- the TB2T3s -- visible. What's up or rather, are the others not up ?I have a tentative theory about this. Of course I do.
Imagine you bought some spiffy Russian SAM gear, say the S-400 Triumf, with a big Russian loan.
Now imagine you switch on it's powerful radar.
Suddenly you 'see' at least have a dozen machines with Mickey Mouse ADS-B identifiers on your Western border. Your trusted TB2 border-guards suddenly look like 'bogeys' to the rest of your defences...oops.
