Correction...Russian helicopter deflected 18 Russian test surface to air missiles...in a test. Many videos coming out of Ukraine clearly show that Russian helicopters are far from invincible.
- wrp 3y agoThe case of 18 missiles over the course of a sortie was a different instance from the test mentioned. Air International magazine published a report from the Egyptian Ministry of Defense, which had already targeted Russian Ka-52 helicopters and subjected them to a myriad of tests before purchase. The Vitebsk-25-mounted helicopter was then fired upon by two dozen Russian Igla MANPADS missiles, none of which hit the target.
