Russian Ka-52 shot down in Hostomel https://video.echelon.pl/videos/watch/fab0adbe-0427-42d0-8be3-5c9b2f73b4b6 March 2022, Hostomel, Ukraine. A Russian soldier recorded the moment a missile hit a Ka-52 helicopter. The footage taken from the ground clearly shows the moment the blades were shot off. This helicopter model is equipped with an ejection system. To prevent the crew from being blown to bits, pyrotechnic devices are activated to shoot off the blades, and only then does the crew eject. Another video shows the same moment, but from the cockpit of another helicopter.
