Valeriy Fedorovych allegedly shot down Russian Su-34 jet flying over Chernihiv
He collected debris from the exploded jet and keeps it in his garage
Pensioner was awarded a medal by the State Border Service of Ukraine
A Ukrainian pensioner shot down a Russian Su-34 jet with a rifle, sending it spiralling to the ground, a government agency has said.
Valeriy Fedorovych opened fire when the enemy aircraft flew overhead in Chernhiv, according to the State Border Service of Ukraine.
It is claimed he picked off the jet, which costs an estimated £74million, and footage circulating at the time showed it careening back down to earth, although he was not seen in the video.

Shotguns are not rifles.
Was he using #4 or #7-1/2 shot?

Good thing it wasn’t an F-15.
I knew an old boy that said he shot down a Nazi dive-bomber with a BAR. It started trailing black smoke, afterward, anyway.

Shotguns can mount riffled barrels and shoot sabboted rounds.
