>Meanwhile, in Soviet Russia:
There are videos on Youtube with captured Russian pilots who ejected their aircrafts in the recent Ruso-Ukrainian war and they all had pretty big gashes on their necks and their overalls soaked in blood from all that bleeding like a stuck pig.
Apparently the canopy and ejection system acts like a guillotine on Russian aircrafts, but that's just what I've heard, I'm no expert on soviet era ejection seats, so if anyone has more info on this would love to learn more.

- ChuckNorris89 5y agoWouldn't being blasted through the canopy be bad for the pilot's health?

- ChuckNorris89 5y agoFair point
- vba616 5y agoWell, you can have a pointy helmet or something intended to break through when all else fails. I don't remember the details, but I remember reading about something like that, on some aircraft.
