.ON JULY 31ST photos of a Russian Mi-8 transportation chopper, plunged and also burning, began circulating on social media. That by itself was certainly not unusual: Ukrainian pressures have obliterated credit ratings of helicopters since the Russian intrusion began. A lot more unexpected was the case in the Ukrainian push that this helicopter had actually been downed through a little drone. A video recording released due to the nation's armed forces a couple of times later on seemed to be to give support to that claim: the video (view below) presents a drone hitting one more Russian aircraft, this time around an Mi-28 assault helicopter, apparently requiring it to make an urgent landing. Were these lucky favorites-- or indicators of a breakthrough in flying war?
