Consider s200 usually use proximity switch and shrapnel to destroy its target so you can't say because its monstrous it must have destroyed,if not enough shrapnel hit the airplane or they don't hit some critical area you can expect it survive.1) If bird accident was some conspiracy that Israel wanted to hide, then why would it report about the accident at all? Jet returned back to service long time ago.
2) How could 1 engine F-35 survive the monster S-200 hit over Lebanon and safely return home? Google S-200 for gods sake.
3) This accident happened before F-35 became even operational. No one would send F-35 to enemy territory before it turns operational.
4) Why do u think its OK for Russian 2 engine jet to crash over a bird hit, while Israeli 1 engine jet can't even suffer some minor damage? Do u think Israeli jets are immune to birds?
Yes u are right.
Now there is no need for such debates a single photo would have cleared the issue it was s200 or a bird or anything else .
(Honestly I have doubt that aging S200 even be able to detect older generation of airplanes with reduced rcs like f117 that have much higher rcs as f35)
And about russian airplane maybe the bird hit canopy and made pilot loose control over the airplane as you probably knew well complete loss of a single engine is not supposed to make an airplane crash even in takeoff and landing time
