Turns along the forest: Mi-24 helicopter at extremely low altitude hit the video

Russian pilots operating combat aviationhave a unique flight experience for the world. And it is not connected with the number of hours spent in the sky. Pilots require increased mastery of technology, which determines the advanced skills of the crew necessary to perform various aerobatics.

It is quite possible that sometimes domestic pilots allow themselves arbitrary turns.

So, on one of the video materials published on the Web, the Mi-24 helicopter, flying at extremely low altitude, is presented. The surrounding area adds to the difficulty of flying: the rotorcraft rushes at high speed along a narrow corridor, on both sides of the “fenced” forest.

The technique used by pilots is a highly effective means of avoiding the effects of air defense systems. Flying at such low altitudes makes them virtually useless, but the risk of fire from ordinary weapons ground forces. However, the "Crocodiles", as attack helicopters, have impressive armor protection.

Several cars just flew into the ditch from shock. Scared Crocodile in its beauty.

A ditch, not a ditch, and it’s easy to get your pants dirty!

My father in the army flew helicopters in the late 60s.
Here they had a case in part. One helicopter noticed a tent with vacationers, decided to joke. Aside, he dropped, suddenly, from behind the forest, flew out on a shaver, and flew over the tent.
The tent was demolished, people were covered with sand.
They qualified as hooliganism, but did not find who the hooligan was.

[Hagalaz]

Yeah. Here the situation is twofold and even triple). Watch from the side - rzhach, from the side of the pilots adrenaline and courage. And from the side I drove those with a tent, in your story, matyugi addressed to the crew.

[Cryvedco]

If I were a vacationer, I would swear the pilot, of course, nobly, but I would get only positive emotions

Yes, there the demolition of a tent ... We have Mi-24 with an air stream blocked the wall during landing ... a wall of shell rock blocks around the KP ... the commander flew in. The wall, of course, was restored by noon, but after all 20 meters fell out - here it is the POWER of Soviet weapons.
And how much slate from the roofs flew away when flying on a shaver ...
But there were no complaints from the population ... again, the martial law regime was ...

Gee! The helicopter pilots, who were on duty at our PDG, also "joked", but already in the 80s. Time goes by, people don't change I remember the attack on the bus stop on the highway near Gatchina and how a matchbox was closed with a wheel for a dispute.

[Vikxnumx]

When the Mi-24 so a couple from behind jump out ... with an air stream, the wool on its back stands on end!

[hohkn]

They flew in the first Chechen war. From the window of the "eight" it seemed that a tree was about to hit the chassis.

[seregatara1969]

Live a little in Syzran or Torzhok. Not so see. And how and where can you learn martial art to win? Along roads, along a clearing in the forest, along a riverbed, they go not noticeably to the target.

[Horst78]

Once on the road to a meeting with Mi-8 caught. Transneft pipe controlled. It was uncomfortable.

We somehow drove in the Chernihiv region (the air regiment is based there) along the highway Vladivostok-Khabarovsk. Two helicopters - Mi-17 and Ka-52 - flew behind us right above our heads along the track on a shaver. The situation, you know, is not a pleasant one. Involuntarily you squeeze your head into your shoulders. And you can pile ...

[iouris]

This is called "air hooliganism", i.e. unprofessional behavior. At the front, such feints are probably also useless.

When, for example, the task is to secretly land a reconnaissance group, this is how they fly. And they also periodically "squat" almost to the ground in order to imitate a landing, and for a minute or two they "execute" this - it is called a "false hovering" so that the enemy considers this place a likely landing site for the group, and so 3-4 times until the group drops off ... And hooliganism is when it’s not in the business, but nobody canceled the OK funds, you don’t cheat a lot.

[iouris]

Yeah, logical. But from what did you conclude that the crew commander was practicing the "group landing"? I see that he was just hooligan on the highway, frightening the drivers, he registered all this disgrace on his personal mobile phone and posted the information on the network to collect "likes". This is infantilism bordering on crime.
Regarding the "means OK". The instrumental error in registering altitude can reach 100 ... 150 m (not counting other errors), therefore, it is not possible to reveal the fact of violation of the flight mode by this method. And the data from the radio altimeter is not recorded. That is why I conclude that the officer is incomplete.

I did not make any conclusion, but replied to the remark that such maneuvers were not needed in the war.
I don’t know what kind of RNS is installed there, but if it is SARPP, then it lies in height in the region of +/- 50 m., Sort of. So if in the flight task the height, for example, is 100 m., And the film will be 0 m., Then the conclusions will be made, definitely. It’s another matter, if the pilot is on friendly terms with OK, then, since there were no incidents, the film can, of course, and that ..., well, you understand.
And further. From memory, the NSS can be slapped on the shitty performance of the duties of the squadron commander, flight, and whatnot. And for this, if caught, "mold" PLP - a prerequisite for a flight incident, like. I've been with the Air Force for a long time, have you?

The shooting was conducted from the cockpit of the weapons operator. This can be seen by the location of the air pressure receiver.

Judging by the way the pilot is driving, he is not the first to fly there. How clearly he bypasses power lines, with a margin, so that the drivers have seen him or them more than once, got used to it ... and then, "some" and such footage are filmed ... in Libya, this is where the drivers are exactly "about ... rejoiced, "he flies there with full armament and a couple of meters above the roofs of cars

In general, the flight of "Mi-24" is beautifully shown here ... and indeed the whole "Enduring and Legendary" ...

I agree, the helicopter is beautiful! But I would like to give another example in the topic of the flight to PMV. In the early 80s in Transbaikalia, the Mi-6 worked out the same flight and went head-on with the train! The train (freight) has stopped!

The video material will be at the disposal of the higher authorities.

The bosses are fine, but if the electricians see this ..

Rutskoi said that in his regiment (it was in Afghanistan) one of the "Rooks" landed with ... a telegraph pole in his belly - he caught it on an ultra-small one.

[Michael67]

Cool. The video is breathtaking. Pilot guys have not only steel nerves. Beauties. I applaud while standing!

[Horst78]

Unfortunately in Avgan they learned to fly like that. We have "vertuns" "Avghans" fly. At least pray every time, you know, they'll take you there.

[igor67]

It’s like a spark, training,

mi 24 is always double. The first is the weapon operator (lower), and the second pilot. But the weapons operator controls are duplicated in case the pilot dies

there is no KPS sight in the operator’s cab, instead of tidying it is therefore a spark, that is, it’s possible a training machine

I wrote below that I don’t remember exactly how the cabin was built on 243 products, more than 25 years have passed, and the PN, ed. Rainbow, from the right, I dismantled so many of them at one time, I still have to remove it from the car,

[iouris]

What is the operator thinking about?

All crocodiles have two cabins. Did you pay attention to the reclined collimator sight if I’m not mistaken?

Well, to be precise, the 24ki has three cabins, an operator’s cabin, a pilot’s cabin and a cargo compartment. I concluded that it’s a spark, since the operator has tidy, I don’t remember what kind of truth is the sight on 243 products (with guns)

Impressive and the musical range matches. But "debriefing" will be for sure.

[master 52]

everyone saw how much midges stuck on the windshield :)

[Simargl]

Noticed: actively sticks at a speed of 90 km / h. Consequently, flew faster

[FRoman1984]

The skill is necessary, well, and beautifully passed.

[Thrifty]

And there is no control mechanism for remote flights, including altitude? To control such flyers. And then we also have Mi28 in the sky of Rostov on the Don a couple of years ago flying at the level of 9 floors between residential buildings! Everyone who saw this flight stood with open mouths in amazement!

[Horst78]

So you must be able to fly.

[Cryvedco]

Apparently, the Mi-24 crew will also need protection during the “debriefing” - after the video material is at the disposal of the higher authorities.

It’s necessary to drive such bosses with pissed rags if he considers this something bad.

[O. Bender]

DPS have radars in smoke, tripods to the ground.

In the 80s, the Mi-24 regiment was based in the Uzbek city of Kagan. The pilots' favorite training was imitation of a car attack driving along the Kagan-Karaulbazar road. A road as straight as an arrow through a semi-desert area with small hills on the sides. Suddenly the car begins to vibrate, a strong low-frequency noise, and over the roof, ahead of the car, at a height of 5-10 meters, a pair of 24 rushes, emerging from behind the nearest hill. Personally, for the first time I felt "ogogo". The locals explained that the pilots are just training in front of Afgan and that this is the most common thing on this road.

[Obi-Wan Kenobi]

In Tashkent, in my opinion, there was a helicopter regiment in Azadbash.
There was also a Kristall boarding house (it still exists) near the Charvak reservoir, there was a large pool below, near the river. Who doesn't know, it's all in the mountains.
Then the Afghan war was in full swing. So the helicopter pilots, on the Mi-24, practiced approaching the target, jumping out of the mountain to this pool, the height to the helicopter is about 50 meters. We rested there for 12 days and every morning, around 12.00:XNUMX, such flights.
It was impressive and the vacationers were delighted.

[Sergey Averchenkov]

Well, something is really quite low, ours usually flew so that the tops of the trees are at the level of the windows. Although it may just be shot ... but it looks beautiful. :)

[Orkraider]

Well done.
Hard in teaching, alive in battle.
They are beautiful, tomboys, and they will not pinpoint and bring down hard. Both from the ground and from the air.

The main thing is that the video does not spread widely, but they can be punished for putting it out.

[Vasyan1971]

Okay, at least I didn’t start to shove stupidly along the highway, to enter a turn. He gained height ... "Eh, he will have to scrub the floors!" ©

[Ros 56]

Beautiful flight and music matched appropriate. Five points out of five. Only the reaction bothers, if of course we have time, car drivers.

It’s quite a working height for itself), it’s a pity that there is no side view, maybe later motorists will flood the network)

Yes, flight standards. I regularly fly over the roof on the limiter, most powerful when the Ka-52 rushing. double-glazed windows rattle, mixed helicopter near I am only glad. let them work out, the only thing for old women is bad.

I heard about it ... It was in Afghanistan, for the speediest set of speed and leaving the site, the body was put nose down on the front wheel. Very impressive (there are vidos) !! But they are warming, this is not a whim, but for lifting a heavy load, such a maneuver.

thanks for the answer. in theory on V-shke, K-shke there should be a KPS in front of the pilot, but here she is not. I by method of an exception p-shku also suggested. in general it is interesting from the old 24-ok how many modifications with the yakb-12,7 remain in operation with us?

Beautiful, cool ........ but very dangerous for the crew!
Will not notice the lines of telephone wires or power lines - and "mouthful of earth" ... ... for the rest of your life or a lost one!
