[ORIGIN OF STORY...]
#Syria, Latakia rif, Hmimim russian airbase lost contact with 2 russian jetfighters – report
Aircontrol and Hmimim airbase admitted they have lost contact with 2 jeftighters over Jabal Turkman. The first bears the N° 927 and the second bears the N° 930. It is a report and I follow up
https://yallasouriya.wordpress.com/2015/12/01/syria-latakia-rif-hmimim-russian-airbase-lost-contact-with-2-russian-jetfighters-report/
Probably communication jammers installed by Tr. in the border could have cut links with air base, which is not actual downing.

Why Russia would need a 2nd base in Syria: #ShayratBase is bigger than #Hmeymim, has 45 plane hangars, can host up to a 100 jets
https://twitter.com/yurybarmin/status/671678822543204352
ShayratBase also safer. In Latakia rebels are still very close to #Hmeymim base.In case of emergency jets could be redeployed to Shayrat
