There are a lot of questions that make this odd to me, which could only be explained by extraordinary Russian logistics incompetence or Ukrainian PsyOps. I'll be interested to learn which it is, either way.
The telegram post I took it from earlier claimed it was an emergency landing. It does look very pristine though I don't disagree

An air battle took place in the sky over the village of Babintsi in the Kiev region, where 2 helicopters of the Russian Aerospace Forces and 1 helicopter of the Ukrainian Air Force collided. During the battle, the Ka-52 was shot down, and the second Russian helicopter decided to retreat, the damaged car made an emergency landing

If I end up being totally wrong on this one, everyone can feel free to point and laugh at me, but there's something off about these ones.

Like, the Heli is too clean. I see no real battle damage, or even any real signs of a hard landing crash. This is what military helicopter crash wreckage usually looks like:

The fact that it looks pristine with no damage, just sitting there in the field is just odd to me. Like, if this is true, did the helicopter start running low on fuel so they just landed and hoofed it out of there? Did they have double engine failure but still managed to perform a perfect autorotation (but couldn't deploy their landing gear for some reason?). Was this just a Russian staging area where there were a lot of helicopters, and this one had mechanical issues so they just left it behind?

you'd be surprised with the maintenance issues you might have in the field. just forget it its a mantra

even Americans claimed a similar thing after the Afghanistan evacuation
 
I read a story somewhere that the Serbs knew they were fucked against NATO bombings.

So they hid their real armor while propping up fake tanks for NATO planes to hit.

Plus I also read there is an insult in Serbia "may your house be shown on CNN" as a way of saying that your ass gets blown up because CNN has a fetish for seeing folks in shitholes blown up and promoting it.

Also Serbia somehow shot down a stealth plane as well iirc, the F-117 Nighthawk, that is no longer in service.
 
What's even crazier to me, as someone who lived through 9/11, is that it's actually happened faster than the demonizing of Arabs and the middle east did after that.
I saw some video posted on this site somewhere about the demonization of Arabs in Hollywood post-9/11 and I wonder how many movies are going to come out with a far more prevelent Russians are animals bias.
 
I've seen posts on Reddit where someone mentions a computer they own still running Windows 7 and you'd think they just admitted to raping a baby.

It's legitimately shocking the responses you get to the most mundane things.
lmao, why?
What's the correlation between using Windows 7 and raping a baby? (random.txt worthy)

I know. A supposed friend railed on for hours at me for still using Windows 7, it's not like I ever told anyone else to use it, but they make it their personal responsibility to convert you to whatever deity is in style at the moment.

Did you not play COD 2019? I was going to make a youtube video about how that game not only whitewashes what motivates conflict in the Middle East but is extreme Anti-Russian propaganda by the standards of the Call of Duty franchise. Also for a brief time Serbs were the Russian-stand in as bad guys in Behind Enemy Lines and Uncharted 2.

They did more than just that. They used old radar units from obsolete aircraft as decoys. The f 117 got shot down for many reasons, mainly that they used the same flight path every time. Also the Serbs had spies watching the nato airfields in Italy, so they would know what was coming ahead of time.

Never played COD, but I mentioned briefly int he end of my post of further negative Russian depictions in media. Since maybe around Euromaiden or so Russians have been depicted as shady ruthless mobsters, similar things happen to Serbs as well, except Serbs are usually depicted as war criminals in hiding who ordered the deathes of entire Albanian villages.

It wouldn't neccesarily be a massive explosion that takes it out, they could have just literally had insane slav with an AK shoot at it, hit something and then partially land/abandon it.

Also, if it was psyops its 10000x easier to show PART of a chopper blown up (like your pictures) rather than a fully formed one. They would just show the rotor part and be like 'Ye look what we blew up brother ivan'
