The AFU destroyed an enemy helicopter with the Swedish RBS-70 (video)

This is reported by Defence Express.

The RBS-70 man-portable air defence systems were delivered to the AFU back in April this year, but no video of their use on the battlefield has yet been published.

At the very beginning of the video, the anti-aircraft missile is quite clearly in the frame, although the mechanism of the so-called "cold launch" is very similar to the work of the Javelin, which also has a downed Ka-52 on its account. But it was the RBS-70 that was recorded on the footage," the report said.

It is reported that the RBS-70 has a specific feature - to guide the missile is used not the traditional system with infrared homing head, but the so-called "laser trail", when the missile flies in the controlling laser beam, and the operator accompanies the target until its destruction.
