In Taganrog, Ukraine may have hit one of only two A-60 planes in Russia's air fleet.
It's a Soviet-age airborne laser system, based on the Il-76MD military transporters. They were built in 1980s, the 2nd model having improved gear.
The hit has been geolocated

"Daggers" are also flying - the fastest type of missile regularly used by Moscow.

Here is a still from a video showing the plane referred to, seemingly alight. It doesn't look military to me.
There is an airbase in the city - but also an aviation plant on the site.
