The ejection system of the Ka-52 helicopter once again saved the lives of pilots.

Video footage appeared on the Web showing how a Ukrainian anti-aircraft guided missile destroys a Ka-52 helicopter, however, after a few seconds, the helicopter crew ejects thanks to the world's first helicopter ejection system.

On the video frames, you can see that as soon as an anti-aircraft guided missile defeats a helicopter, the pilots immediately prepare to eject, which takes only a few seconds for the latter and they are thrown from the already falling combat vehicle at a distance of several hundred meters.

The location and date of the filming of the video remain unknown. However, video footage has already appeared earlier, which depicts the process of ejection from a Ka-52 helicopter - judging by the new video footage, we are talking about a different case.

Information about the condition of the pilots of the downed helicopter has not yet been announced, however, such rescue systems provide a high chance of survival when it is no longer possible to control the machine hit by fire.
