"Burning out evil": the AFU showed spectacular footage of our aviation
Ukrainian army aviation showed its work. Warriors operate unguided aircraft missiles at the enemy.
Defenders noted that army aviation is hardcore. And the proposed video is real, although it may seem like it is footage from a blockbuster.
“We are burning out the evil spirits and igni et ferro. The rocket launches only look like a scene from a film, but they are real. Filmed live,” said the army aviators (Igni et ferro literally - “with fire and sword.” - Ed.).
The video shows the use of unguided aircraft missiles. Compared to cannon weapons, NARs have a long effective range, but also have too much dispersion at long ranges.

Army aviation belongs to the Ground Forces, not the Air Force. This is because helicopters only operate for the Army and provide air support to the infantry. When the latter goes on the offensive, the helicopters cover them, or when the infantry holds the defense and the enemy begins to attack, the helicopter pilots burn enemy equipment and personnel.
There are four army aviation brigades in Ukraine. They are armed with Mi-24 and Mi-8 helicopters. It was army aviation that, after a full-scale invasion, carried out an almost impossible operation with flights to the surrounded Mariupol Azovstal. Helicopter pilots also actively participated in the liberation of Zmiinyi Island.
