>>64894415I cant play the catbox link mp4 for some reason at all. Is the video broken?
>>64894435Seems to be fucked. Try this instead: https://xcancel.com/bayraktar_1love/status/2025991272448606715

>>64894446>Absolute retard*Based retard
>>64894415I'm amazed by how instant the loss of momentum is. Would've thought that it would have at least carried itself forward by at least a couple dozen more feet instead of just falling right over the guys head
>>64894461Helicopters are literally flying death box. If something goes wrong, you're fucked. So a manpad ....At least a plane can fly in certains situations.
Russians can't use heli's anymore with those unlimited amount of STING drones
>>64894461The best way I've had it described to me:"A plane wants to fly, a helicopter wants to fall"
>>64894446The biggest retards give us the best footage.
>>64894461You can see the pilot pulling the nose up just as the rotor blades started falling apart, after which the heli literally became a brick
>>64894415>Previously unpublished footage shows a Russian Ka-52 military helicopter being shot down with a MANPADS over Hostomel in March 2022. The video was reportedly recorded by a Rosgvardia soldier and has only now surfaced.

>>64894517>"A plane wants to fly, a helicopter wants to flail"fixed for you
>>64894539>>64894461Pilot engaged ejection procedure, rotor blades with jettisoned by pyro charges.
>>64894577stop seething
>>64894589That's neat, I didn't know helis could eject
>>64894638Most can't, that one can.
>>64894638Ka-50/52 is one of the few platforms that has an ejection capability but the lethality of MANPADS warhead fragments schwacking pilots out of the cockpit hasn't helped for survivability.

>>64894446>>64894415>"Parts are falling off the Russian! Allahu Akbar!">"It's a bomb, you imbecile!"
>>64894587Since when do helicopter pilots fly on oxygen? That sticker's stupid
>>64899293i'ts an old reference sir, but it checks out
