Recently we Reportedhow the night training flight of the attack helicopter Mi-28 "Night Hunter" of the Russian Air Force in the Kuban on December 11, 2019 ended in tragedy. As a result, both crew members, the pilot and the navigator were killed. Now a photograph of the rotorcraft, lying on the ground in an inverted state, has appeared.

The aircraft made a hard landing on the territory of a military unit near the city of Korenovsk (Krasnodar Territory). In the photo provided by the portal "Military Review", recorded that the helicopter was seriously injured and buried by screws in the ground. Most likely, in this position the helicopter was discovered.



The helicopter was badly damaged, it lies on the ground with screws, the bow is damaged, the wings flew off. Most likely, he caught on the ground with screws when he turned around, judging by the damage

    Hmm. Tipped the device upside down. By the way, the Mi-28 is designed to fall. But only on the chassis. Why did it happen? We will wait for the results of the investigation. hi
