I don't believe Wagner is really a PMC, more like a de facto private army of Russian President Vladimir Putin so yeah they get whatever Putin wants them to have. But if the Russian AF was performing up to snuff there would be no need to hire a retired General to perform CAS. Of course him getting shot down does prove the AF was right to be timid, I bet the Russian pilots were happier than the Ukrainians that he got shot down "see we told you it's not safe".
