It was probably fired at the S-200 missiles heading for the A-50.
I can get why bystanders are confused thinking it was friendly fire
Something is off about this video.
but it is not fired at the direction of the flying A-50 at all
Weird. Plane was already popping flares before the launch of missile. Why use counter measures in friendly territory without threats ? Imo missile in this video was trying to intercept whatever was coming at that plane
Either firing at a drone or trying to intercept what was already gunning for the A-50., the A-50 crew were already full swing of dumping every counter measure they had before that AA was fire off can tell with the trail of flare at start of vid.
Gerasimov! Shoigu! Where are they?
Could be Russian AD trying to intercept Ukrainian C-200 missile.
It was Radar painted and launching flare as countermeasures!
It’s not Rocket science lol
Where was the KABOOM? There was meant to be an A-50 shattering KABOOM!
u/savevideo
So, how many Ukrainian POWs died on that airplane?
That pilot pressing the countermeasure button must have realized at that point the huge mistake he made supporting Putler and their criminal war
It’s OK comrade, plane is OK, landed with small scratch. We buff out with good Russian vodka, it fly again……
