SU-25 Frogfoot attack fighter - Russia - 12 Sep 22

Off the cuff my first thought is pilot error. Too steep/tight turn too low and slow but I don’t know anything about flying fighter jets. However I suspect that the Russian pilots are no Snort Snodgrasses.
 
I have stepped through it several times frame by frame. There are a fair number of compression artifacts that distort the images.

Not certain but it does seem like the fighter on the right, which eventually crashes, is originally higher, but then drops down before starting the left bank that then becomes vertical and crashes. No obvious fire or structural failure visible,
