Russia releases dramatic cockpit video of helicopter attack on Ukrainian air defence positions

Dramatic cockpit video shows what Russia says is a group of helicopters attacking Ukrainian positions. Moscow said the team hit air defence positions and Manpad anti-aircraft operators.
The helicopters deployed missile munitions and small arms using various manoeuvres which made it possible to carry out a tactical airborne assault landing operation on the airfield safely.
It comes as Mariupol city council says rescuers are continuing to clear rubble at the drama theatre and searching for survivors despite “continuous shelling”.
It said information about the victims “is still being clarified”.
More than a day after the air raid, there are no reports of deaths, and it is not clear how many people have emerged from the rubble.
One woman who said she had been preparing food for the people sheltering in the theatre said nearly 800 civilians were in the building when it was hit.

Two Ka-52 and Mi-8 helicopters were flying. Mi-8 with a landing party on board. The Ka-52 covered the Mi-8 which was fired from the ground. The Ka-52 was damaged, did not reach the base, sat down in the field. Then the landing party came and evacuated the crew of the ka-52.

The red lever is not the rotor brake or fire extinguisher like everyone else is saying. It is one of the two fuel cutoff valves. It is edited so you don't see it but he would have then pulled the other red lever next to that as the KA-50 has two turbine engines. Rotor brake is not part of the evacuation checklist as it would not slow the rotor enough in the 5 seconds it takes to pull the fuel cutoffs and get out.

I’m surprised Russia released this with the ending showing them ditching it..

[@ministryofgoodaffairs3954]

Up to 500 American soldiers died in eastern Ukraine, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said during a hearing in the Federation Council. Russia has irrefutable evidence of the transfer of a huge number of American weapons to the Donbass in the last days. According to The Washington Post, the senator asked Lavrov how many American soldiers had died fighting in eastern Ukraine. According to the minister, “it is very difficult to give a completely accurate estimate, given the US efforts to cover up the death toll. But our estimate is about 400-500 people,” Lavrov said.

Reading the title of this video and then watching the video, I was surprised to see the helo landing and the pilots coming out. I half expected the pilots to assault on foot the air defense positions because they hated them that much and they ran out of ammo or something.

[@bobigorg1665]

In fact, I don't understand the logic of posting such headlines (and, if it concerns the Russian army), maybe by adding drama, the media are gaining more views? As for the pilots, they had to make an emergency landing after the helicopter received heavy damage from shelling from the ground. At the moment, both pilots are alive and well, returned to the unit and, possibly, are on a mission again.

[@LEGIONARIO1970]

They didn't run out of ammunition, they just got destroyed on the ground, this KA-52 received severe punishment from the ground and still was able to land safely, after that more Russians helicopters arrived and rescued the pilot, he recorded more than this video shows. This happened on February 24th, the first day of the war.

it was on February 24, when landing troops at the airfield near Kiev, he called fire on himself so that his wingmen could see where the shooting was coming from. 18 MANPADS were fired at this helicopter, as well as anti-aircraft shells were fired at it. The box and engine were damaged .

the headlines, of course, are beautiful in the style of Western propaganda, and with that couch general I explain this video from the Ka-52 at the Gostomel airfield in Kiev in the early days of the war. The leading board of the Ka-52 covered the Mi-8 with troops, supported from the air. It was hit by 18 launches from MANPADS and ZSU Shilka, and one hit, although they were aiming at the Mi-8. The Ka-52 had to make an emergency landing, but completed its operation successfully destroyed the enemy's air defense and the crews of the air defense system
