    Hi,

    Clear video of a KA-52 copping missile hit.
    Looks genuine and from the Ukraine war.

    ˙yeah, nah....


    After looking at that for a second time I wondered how real it was, at
    first the missile appears to hit the rear of the machine then both
    rotors come off?
    Also the scene where it hits the building doesn't look right to me, not
    that I have witnessed any helicopters hitting buildings but the
    explosion looks wrong.

    I call fake. Look at the trees, water and buildings. Seems to come straight out of a video game.

    Don't we see at least one ejector seat operate? If so, the blades would
    have been shed as part of the ejector function.

    ** If counter rotating heli blades struck, that is just what would happen.

    Also the scene where it hits the building doesn't look right to me, not
    that I have witnessed any helicopters hitting buildings but the
    explosion looks wrong.

    ** The shaky hand held camera, time delay before impact is heard and secondary noises as ordinance flys off in all directions are very realistic.

    For a moment, one can see a crew member heading skyward.
