Russia's Military Weakness Exposed: Helicopter Shot Down, Guns Destroyed, and Humvee Survives

Ukrainian forces have destroyed three Russian Ka-52 attack helicopters this week, with one incident captured on video. The footage suggests that the Russian pilots were flying at an altitude that left them vulnerable to ground-launched missiles, highlighting their inexperience and inability to learn critical lessons. Former US Army General Ben Hodges expressed surprise at the pilots' tactics, stating that after 18 months of war in Ukraine, they should have internalized the risks. The downing of the helicopters also demonstrates the adaptability of the Ukrainian military and raises questions about Russia's ability to produce these aircraft, as they rely on foreign components.
