ALLAH AKBAR!!!! No offense but there should be a drinking game for whenever I see a video of something being shot down and someone or a group of someones start shouting "ALLAH AKBAR!" take a shot. [editline]29th November 2012[/editline] All in all though that must have been intense to be there. I mean that rocket slammed into that helo. [editline]29th November 2012[/editline] Jesus I know it means Oh my god. I'm not saying it like I'm a surprised "'murican" or something.
God would it suck to be in that helo, being hit so high up.
All those "allah ackbar"s are not gonna help with 'muricas views of the middle east

[/QUOTE] death by alcohol poisoning.. anyway, that was a hell of a shot, i'm sure if i was in that heli i'd just about piss myself
hey guys, they said allah akbar isn't that weird?
Oh I hope they have eject seats.
Was it the same helicopter at the end? It looked like nothing had happened to it.
[QUOTE=Krinkels;38644408]Oh I hope they have eject seats.[/QUOTE] How do they eject?

Its a cultural thing.
If that was the same helicopter it shrugged that off like a fucking champ

now where was this, i coudn't see the pattern on the helo
Jesus christ, Russian choppers are tough. [editline]nvm[/editline] nope nvm [QUOTE=recolour;38644559]now where was this, i coudn't see the pattern on the helo[/QUOTE] I'd assume Syria.

You say it like I'm some idiot about it or something. I'm just saying that I've seen alot of videos like this where something blows up, the camera shakes and everyone goes "Oh my God."
Jesus i really felt bad for the guys in the chopper
I dont think he zoomed back in on the same chopper, it didnt look damaged in the slightest, wasnt even throwing off smoke or anything. Looks like the missile hit the engine too
[QUOTE=Novangel;38644449]How do they eject?[/QUOTE] -snip- I was wrong, see below
[QUOTE=Swebonny;38644429]Was it the same helicopter at the end? It looked like nothing had happened to it.[/QUOTE] No clue what type of warhead was used, but I'm pretty sure that was an MI-8 and those aren't too heavily armored. If it was an anti tank warhead its likely it went through one side and out the other.
[QUOTE=Timebomb575;38644644]I dont think he zoomed back in on the same chopper, it didnt look damaged in the slightest, wasnt even throwing off smoke or anything. Looks like the missile hit the engine too[/QUOTE] You can sort of see what appears to be a wisp of smoke coming off of it.

[QUOTE=imptastick;38644669]Most modern helicopters have ejection seats IIRC, it just kicks the blades off first then after they are out of the way the seat ejects.[/QUOTE] Only the Kamov Ka-50 and variants have that, and only about 30 of those are in service still. In other words, only about 30 of [I]all[/I] the world's helicopters have that.
It actually blew up when it hit the ground. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J45--29d9CU[/media] 1:25
[QUOTE=Novangel;38644449]How do they eject?[/QUOTE] Downwards. :v:

[QUOTE=Apache249;38645128][/QUOTE] He probably didn't watch the second video. Fuck being in a helicopter when that happens.
Kinda fucked up that you can hear children screaming in the background. I really hope they aren't participating in the firefight.
