The war between drones and choppers in Ukraine

.ON JULY 31ST images of a Russian Mi-8 transport chopper, collapsed and also burning, began spreading on social networking sites. That in itself was actually not unique: Ukrainian pressures have actually rejected scores of choppers because the Russian infiltration started. So much more surprising was actually the case in the Ukrainian press that this chopper had actually been actually downed through a tiny drone. A video released by the nation's armed forces a few times later on appeared to provide support to that case: the video (see listed below) presents a drone attacking an additional Russian plane, this time around an Mi-28 strike chopper, apparently requiring it to create an emergency situation landing. Was actually these privileged smash hits-- or indicators of an advancement in aerial warfare?
