The Ukrainian military’s combat work was demonstrated by the Ukrainian Armed Forces Stratcom. Before the Mi-8 strike, the invaders were detected by a Ukrainian reconnaissance drone, which then adjusted the fire. The shell fell near the helicopter, which likely led to significant damage to the aircraft from debris.
Our sources claim that the helicopter was functionally destroyed,” the military said.
“Military” notes that the Mi-8 of the invaders discovered a Ukrainian-made SHARK reconnaissance unmanned system. Shark from Ukrspecsystems has received an upgrade that increases its communication range by 20 km.
This is not the first such case when Ukrainian artillery managed to neutralize a Russian helicopter. In February of this year, artillery of the 14th separate mechanized brigade destroyed a Mi-24 helicopter. Then they started firing at him as he landed.
Recently, in the Kupyansk direction, HIMARS also hit the Russian R-934B Sinitsa electronic warfare station. The vehicle of the Russian electronic warfare station, which the invaders tried to hide in a forest belt, was also discovered by Ukrainian aerial reconnaissance.
