Russian Su-35 shot down a Ukrainian helicopter from a cannon near Odessa

16

In the course of the Russian special operation on Ukrainian territory, documentary evidence of what is happening periodically appears on the Web. Eyewitnesses, probably military personnel of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, filmed how a Su-35 fighter of the Russian Aerospace Forces shot down a Mi-14PS naval search and rescue helicopter of the Ukrainian Navy in the Odessa region.

The footage shows how the Su-35 fires at the Mi-14PS from its 30-mm aircraft gun GSh-30-1. The helicopter maneuvered, pressed as low as possible to the surface, but the professional skill of the pilot, given the capabilities of the old rotorcraft, did not help to escape from the modern fighter.



Voices behind the scenes are closely watching what is happening and someone is informed by radio. Thus, the Ukrainian side from the very beginning knew all the details about what had happened.


However, only now the general public has become aware that this happened a month ago. At the helm of the helicopter was one of the best pilots of Ukraine - Deputy Commander of the Naval Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, Colonel Igor Bedzay. In 2014, he led the 10th Marine Aviation Brigade in Saki (Crimea), which was transferred to Nikolaev.

At the same time, on May 7, Ukrainian media reported to the public that Bedzai died during a combat mission as part of the crew of a maritime search and rescue helicopter, which was shot down by a missile fired from a Russian fighter.

    Against the Su-35, it’s better not to click one place .. at least for helicopters, at least for any other aircraft

    And in the afternoon I read these headlines: "Unique footage moments before destruction: Su-30 of the Russian Aerospace Forces enters the Ukrainian Mi-14 near Odessa"
    The question arises: so which plane shot down?

      Questions do not arise if you carefully watch the video.

        Well, what plane was shot down? Can you tell me how you determined the brand of the aircraft?

          Well, what plane was shot down?

          Read the text, everything is written there.

          Can you tell me how you determined the brand of the aircraft?

          On the frames, the aircraft does not have additional horizontal tail (canard), like the Su-30SM. So this is the Su-35S, because. Su-27s in Ukraine are not involved.

            But if you can’t read, then read carefully: where does it say about the SU-30SM?

              There is no information on the use of earlier modifications of the Su-30, such as the Su-30M2. In general, their number in the VKS is negligible. The probability that it is the Su-30 in the video tends to zero.

                There are photos, you can see. Are there such machines in the VKS? There is. Few or many, maybe now there are more of them than the SU-35S. Therefore, this machine can be on the record. And by the way, if you type in the search, they basically write that the SU-30 shot down a helicopter.

                  Now I'm finally convinced of the level of your awareness. For the future, it’s better not to argue if you don’t understand what is at stake.

                    Well, yes, you will notice a straw in others, but you will not see a log in yourself.

    On video, the moment of the downing was not fixed. Again, why did the pilot die from the rocket? After all, the fighter used a cannon? Something is kinda gross...

    The title of the article is incorrect. the helicopter was shot down on the second run by a R-73 missile. on the video the first call and an unsuccessful attempt to shoot him down from a cannon.

    Another ukrocolonel died and this pleases, although a dead Ukrainian general would be even better.
