  1. There are really very limited ways one can take these screens. I found that adding vehicle information clutters the screen, adding real images breaks the continuity with in-game graphics (at least for me), so the only coherent way is sort of what I did above. 

  2. None if you have already decided. However, a staggering number of 432 documented vehicles (!) have changed sides during the conflict. February 2015 alone saw 150 Ukrainian vehicles trophied by LNR/DNR republic. About 23 SPG's have been captured altogether, which I think is what is shown in your previous picture. 

    I'm sure you heard of this site before, it is very well documented by both Uk and Ru sources: http://lostarmour.info/analytics/ 

  3. What kind of damage are we looking at?

    Hard to say since we don't know exactly at which angle did the jet impacted. From the outside, I would expect most of right side front and top ERA bricks to be off, shtora jammer and both frontal LWR's to be off and and KO on gunner's optical sight. Depending on weather the thermal sight was covered or not, that could be damaged too. If the jet managed to penetrate, perhaps some autoloader damage could have happened too. 

  4. In defense circles, there was still a lot of trumpeting how much it was real and soon to be in production from my recollection.  It may have been purely company fluff, but the tight link between government and defense industry in Russia makes it hard to judge sometimes just how unofficial statements may or may not be.  

    I think it is hard to distinguish things like that in all countries. A factory makes a self funded project and everyone inclined jumps on wishful thinking wagon. Interest generated by Black Eagle led to MoD funded Burlak project on T-90 base which was also successfully canned. Perhaps that is where the confusion comes from.
