Russian Ka-52 helicopter blows up Ukrainian boat drone armed with anti-air missiles



A Russian attack helicopter has blown up a Ukrainian drone armed with anti-air missiles. Video from the cockpit of a Ka-52 chopper over the Black Sea showed the battle unfolding. The Magura V is fleeing the helicopter, dodging bullets fired from a side-mounted machine gun. On the back of the drone is a weapon which is believed to be an R-73 air-to-air missile. The missile is traditionally mounted on planes and used to shoot down other aircraft. It seems the drone’s launcher is disabled as it doesn’t fire at the helicopter. At first the helicopter gunner cannot hit the moving drone. But eventually the drone is disabled or runs out of power and is stationary in the water. Only then is the gunner able to shoot the missile on its back, triggering an explosion. More footage from water-level shows the same firefight taking place. It is the first time that Magura V drones have been spotted armed with anti-air missiles. They have typically been used to ram into Russian warships and explode. The drones have proved vert effective at driving Russia out of the Black Sea. It now appears Ukraine is trying to achieve the same success in the air. #russia #ukraine #

  1. There was a tactical deployment error in using a single Magura V drone. The Air-to-Air R-73 missile is a heat seeker and has a limited lock-on angle and must be looking at the target. They should have used at least two Magura V drones to have one of them being able to turn toward the chopper to lock-on the R-73.

  2. I bet the Russian chopper pilot had to change his underwear! It’s the first time a Ukrainian sea drone was design to shoot and kill an aircraft! He couldn’t runway or the R-73 heat seeker would have gotten him. He had to hope he didn’t run out of gas before the sea drone!

  3. I thought when I started to watch this video at the beginning that just maybe, just maybe,. the reenactment of the scene from the James Bond movie, "Skyfall," was going to happen when villain Silva's helicopter ended up losing control after the first explosion inside the mansion set off by Bond that caused the helicopter to lose control and crash into the stone mansion, which caused a giant explosion larger than the first one from all of the fuel attached to the helicopter. If you haven't seen this explosion from the Movie, "Skyfall," you should see it and Ukraine's special ops should try to emulate it. Seriously. Slava Ukraine!

  5. A 😮😢😢😮😮😢 bad & nasty 😮😢😢😮😮😢 retired director from General Dynamics, previously worked in San Diego, probably more than 85 yrs old now, is abusing US Gov's monitoring satellite to harass normal US civilians, inside USA & all over the world for his own entertainment & amusement.

    These remote sensors of the monitoring satellites are capable of interpreting the words you're thinking in your mind, may be, by air vibration or by scanning the brainwaves from your brain.

    The Israeli IDF are using similar satellite technologies to spy on the Hamas leadership hiding deep inside the Gaza Tunnels. IDF once released footage of these videos in much degraded resolution.

    This could also have been the way how our intelligence services obtained classified information on Xi Jinping's missile deployment within China.

    This retired General Dynamics director could have been the mastermind behind the plane crash killing the Secretary of Commerce Ronald Brown of the Clinton Administration, in the plane crash in 1996 in Croatia.

    The United States as we learned and studied in American high school does not exist anymore; it has been destroyed.

    United States have been dead. American citizens don't have human rights.

    This retired Director of General Dynamics is indeed a national disgrace of the United States.

    If this America disgrace wants to harrass any American civilian, he just puts this American into our Gov. blacklist for monitoring, and he can harass this American civilian.

    United States must stop this disgrace retired director from General Dynamics.

    Our Congress should carry out an investigation into our Gov satellite misuse, I am willing to testify in Congress.

    I can give White House my name and let them check if I have been wrongly put onto the blacklist of terrorists for monitoring, just for some retired director from General Dynamics for his personal amusement and entertainment.

    I am requesting help here from White House. That's why I'm typing all these.

    White House can simply remove my name from the list of terrorists being monitored by the American intelligence services.

    I am the victim of abuse of American monitoring satellites.
