Russian ‘Alligator’ helicopter, worth £12,500,000, destroyed

This is the intense moment when a highly developed Russian attack helicopter, nicknamed the ‘Alligator’, is shot down by Ukraine‘s military.

A video shows the Swedish army using a small portable missile launcher to successfully attack an aircraft.

In simple words, a guy from Ukraine said to shoot, and a few seconds later, someone happily shouted that they hit the target.

The Ka-52, a helicopter gunship, is very expensive, costing at least £12. 5 million The Kremlin praises it as the best in the world. However, sometimes it crashes and causes a big fire.

A Russian helicopter called Ka-52 was destroyed by Ukrainian forces.
A video of what happened afterwards shows fire and smoke coming out of the crashed plane.

The event is said to have occurred in August at a field close to a place called Robotyne, that was recently freed. It happened in the Zaporizhzhia region.

Video from a Telegram channel called War Gonzo showed that while the ‘Alligator’ was on fire in a field, a Russian transport helicopter flew nearby and landed.

The pilot ran with two rescuers into a helicopter while his plane was producing a lot of thick black smoke.
The news channel said that right after the helicopter crash, another helicopter called Mi-28 came to the site. It checked the area, found where the person who survived was, and sent a message for them to be rescued.

A little while later, a helicopter came and took the pilot.

The Ka-52 helicopter can destroy things on the ground like tanks, vehicles with and without armor, and slow-moving objects in the air.

As soldiers move closer to the battlefront during the three-month counterattack, people are paying more attention to how well they are performing.

Ukrainian soldiers said that two helicopters, called ‘Alligators’, were shot down. One was near Robytyne and the other was near Bakhmut, both in Donetsk region.

Russia is estimated to have lost nine attack helicopters in the war with Ukraine.
