lmao so prigozhin's plane got aced near an artillery and missile depot of unit 55443, and the air defense system that shot down prigozhin was there to protect that site, so it is now entirely a possibility that the shootdown was accidental because someone got jumpy due to the recent ukrainian drone attacks on moscow

It would have ruled if it landed on the depot and blew the place up looney toons style

Shame about the innocent plane crew (I am assuming they were civilians, not Dirlewagner shitheads). No tears for Prigozhin, though.

And the man was the dumbest rear end in a top hat alive to trust Putin. Literally everyone except him saw this coming.

Do you think the plane owned by prigozhin and which prigozhin and maybe also utkin was riding at the time, may have been piloted by some poo poo head?

Yeah, I suspect Wagner, flying on a plane Prig frequently uses, likely had his own private crew.

the plane crew were employed by wagner, as pilots. like, they weren't contracted or anything, they were literal wagner mercs flying the plane

Please let this be all accidental. Absolutely the best if its true.

But I wholly believe Prig was a dead man walking since the rebellion and this was on purpose.

My preference in terms of what happened:

It was deliberate, but Chef wasn't on the plane
Accidental/negligent, and he was on it
Deliberate, on the plane
Accidental, he wasn't on it
Actual mechanical issue

This is too fast. The rate they're releasing statements like this practically screams that this was a deliberate assassination.

So what is the over/under for Wagner now?

Continues to operate as if nothing happened, mostly in Africa instead of Europe
Tries to go for a second coup on Moscow, succeeds (somehow?)
Tries to go for a second coup on Moscow, everybody involved gets killed or worse, arrested and tortured on private streaming networks
All the mercenaries run the gently caress away into Georgia
Putin issues a new law acknowledging, and then erasing, Wagner PMC, followed by all of the mercenaries hunted down for sport
Quietly tries to reintegrate into society, throwing all the gear and paperwork into a ditch and pretend they were all badass nightclub bouncers
