Sistemi raketor më i avancuar i Britanisë besohet se ka rrëzuar një helikopter rus për herë të parë në Ukrainë, shkruan The Independent.

Britania furnizoi Ukrainën me sistemin raketor Starstreak në fillim të marsit. Sulmi i Starstreak ndaj një helikopteri rus në rajonin e Luhanskut është verifikuar nga ministria e mbrojtjes.

Ushtria Britanike tha se Starstreak është një “armë shumë e aftë e mbrojtjes ajrore” që është veçanërisht efektive kundër helikopterëve.

Footage of the moment the Russian Mi-28N helicopter was shot out of the sky in the Luhansk region showed the aircraft being cut in two as its tail was struck by a missile.

The Starstreak system is a laser-guided missile that travels at more than three times the speed of sound to take down low-flying enemy jets and attack helicopters
