Moment Putin's 55th colonel was killed when his helicopter 'was blown out the sky by Ukrainian anti-aircraft missile'
Daily Mail ^ | 6/20/2022 | Will Stewart

Dramatic footage shows the moment a Russian colonel crashes in his helicopter after being hit with a Ukrainian missile.

Lt-Col Sergey Gundorov, 51, was struck near Volnovakha in the Donbas.

The military helicopter flew on after being hit with a portable surface-to-air missile.

His stricken Mi-35 touched the ground before cartwheeling over a narrow strip of woodland and crashing in a fireball in a field.

Flames and black smoke are seen from the explosion.

A second Russian helicopter is seen firing decoy flares and apparently escapes unscathed.

Gundorov is the 55th known Russian colonel to be killed in Vladimir Putin's war in Ukraine.

Like a heat-seeking missile, Biden went straight off the bike path and headed toward a little girl. Creeper in Chief.

“Lt-Col Sergey Gundorov” was flying a MI-35 attack helicopter and engaged in combat operations. That makes him fair game and zot-worthy.

Good shooting by the Ukies here.

“Good Grief! Can’t you give the war porn a rest?”

Why don’t you just stay off the war topics if you don’t want to read them?

“Russia is winning the war”

If this is Russia winning then what would Russia losing look like?

Russia is mostly self-sufficient and its people are used to hardship and deprivation. It’s the pampered West with its millions of snowflakes that will suffer. They can’t go 5 minutes without their touchscreens in their faces.

The Russia-Ukraine War is a proxy war started by the United States in 2014 with the violent overthrow of the democratically elected government of Ukraine[5] with the aid of neo-Nazi forces.[6]

There are multiple issues that led to the Russian incursion into Ukraine in February 2022:

The only missile I see in the video actually missed. Fired at the first helicopter from beyond the tree line to the upper right of the frame. It impacted the ground, probably decoyed by the flares.

The second helicopter just seemed to blow up. No visible smoke trail from a missile. The tree line it was approaching was too close for a missile to have time to arm. If a missile came from elsewhere the smoke trail must have been too faint for the crappy video to pick up.

“Biden fell off a bike on Saturday and it took a detail of SS hires to get his demented old azz off the ground. It was delightful viewing.”

One or two really good videos of that incident were posted here on FR. They showed that that it was entirely his fault because he was trying to dismount the bike, put his left foot on the ground, and then tried to disengage from the pedal and put his right foot on the ground, however, he forgot that his right foot was still in a toe clip. The right foot still being in the toe clip, he totally lost his balance when he shifted his weight from his left foot to what he thought was his right foot on the ground, when it was actually in the air. Looks like he had a very much “senior moment.”

So many families losing their father every day, because of Putin’s greed and ruthlessness.

Monstrous evil.

Fake vid. Look at the terrain, from where was this filmed? Another video game.

Sure, comrade.

Russia probably can pull this off, short term.

And then it will face an forever gorilla war that will reach into Russia and destroy it.

The fact is, this should have been easy.

Turns outs central planning sucks as bad in war tactics as it does economics. Doesn’t help that the Russian military is made of of drunks and conscripts whose major motive (outside of not dying) is making a buck.

See Pollard’s post above to see what evil looks like.
