Pretty darn intense, can "hear" the adrenalin in their voices....

Video from a group of English speaking Ukrainian Foreign Legion fighters operating with the Ukrainian Kranken Group shows the men conducting an ambush on a Russian BTR north of Charkiv. The video was filmed with a helmet cam attached to one of the fighters and also with a drone filming the scene from above. The men are seen sneaking on to the BTR through nearby woods before engaging the vehicle with anti-tank weapons from a relatively short distance. After the ambush the men assumed the vehicle was still active and decided to pull back to avoid further contact. The drone video however shows the vehicle pulling back in to the woods aswell for the same reason. Another scene of the footage shows it being destroyed then afterwards.

This should be the end game.

Congratulations, you just validated every single bit of Russian paranoia in existence and probably going to lead to mass death and destruction in the region.

Nederland is still a great place even they "lost" Indonesia. Nothing wrong with that, but a real chance for long time peace, self determination and prosperity will come to citizens once russia aka "prison of the nations" will leave behind its colonial past.

The Ka-52 was one of my favourite choppers before the war with Ukraine.
Turns out it's one of the biggest lemons of the Russian defence industry.

Nowadays Russian paranoid minds also examining in state TV: Why NATO bombed Belgrad/Serbia . They had better ask Bosniac Muslims who were massacred by Serbians.
Don't pay too much attention their on sick alibis.

Anybody can give us info about What kind of missiles are they?
Is it something provided from WEST and they able to integrate to Ukraine fighters ?

smaller ones are R 73 archer (IR) the other one is R 27R (semi active radar)

-R 73 archer is Russian equivalent of AIM 9 sidewinder series, supposed to be good but with IR seeker not IIR!

-R 27R is more like AIM 7 Sparrow

This article reeks of american moralist preaching. Who's going to be in charge of those decolonized regions then, another Lukashenko, or some warlord or oligarch? Who'll be doing the decolonizing, and what will happen with the thousands of nukes they still have? Whatever nations get born out of this collapse would end up as puppet regimes of the West and China and how exactly do the people in them benefit from that?

Remember the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. The nations that were born from that ended up being ruled by autocrats, were invaded by the nazis and then had to endure 45 years of communist dictatorship. Now apply this picture to a collapsed Russia and add the potential of nuclear terrorism on top of it all.

I am actually impressed by the survivability of Ka-52. Yes they lost a lot but to be honest helicopters are very easy targets for enemy fire and usually get hit a lot. In Ka52's case we see lots of shot down choopers land mostly intact and crews probably survived the landing. Thats not the case in most helicopter crashes. I think thats because the coaxial rotor design. Since getting hit by the tail(and thats thr standart target area in helicopers) put the chopper in endless spin I guess pilots have been able to land the choppers kinda safely.

Yeah Ka52 probably doesn't have any good sensors and avionics, very poor countermeasure systems, uses civilian electronic panels, it wings seems to be vibrating wildly and it isn't the helicopter that was advertised but i think coaxial rotor design shows it usefullnes in Ka52.

You right.
But there is ONE and ONLY one reason.
It is because of main pair blades one upon another....Nothing else

most of the cases 80 -85% heli is hit on tail.... then heli start to spin and pilot loss control
on Ka-52 hit to tail mean that pilot control the fall or even control lost by design of All helicopters main rotor create drag/resist to air and heli keep falling slowly
on Ka-52 this fall slowly is more and more slowly that is why heli pilots have big chance to survive.
Other than that Ka-52 is less in all other fields.........Electronics, Optics, Advanced missile, Jamming, Warning systems, Situation awareness etc........

It is look sexy for some people but nothing else then old relic
