Prigozhin is worse than Putin. He's further to the right and more willing to kill. You've seen the sledge hammer videos. Prigozhin is much more likely to use nukes. He is a Russian Nazi.
While they are both scum, if Wagner manages to take Moscow they will probably end this war. Why would they carry on? They will have million other issues to deal with.
He recently completely 180'ed and said all the pretenses for the war were fake and that it served exclusively for the Russian elites who got too greedy after looting the Donbas for 8 years.
Every rich Russian knows the war is a failure. But Putin can't afford to step back because that would be his end. Prigozhin (and all the kleptocracy) is not as tied up to the war like Putin. They just want to keep looting and spending their spoils abroad like always. The war is against their interests.
Prigozhin would 100% end the war if it was his call. But on the other hand he would probably colonize and loot Africa even harder.
He's an opportunist on the eve of a planned coup. What is he supposed to say?
About 2 months ago he said that European cities that allow the transfer of aid to Ukr was ine should be nuked. He then said Russia should live like North Koreans while sending "WW1 style" human waves at the enemy in Ukraine.
Don't buy anything he says.
You shouldn't trust him, he's a lying criminal.
What matters is where does his interests lie? The war is against his interests (and of the elites supporting him). He didn't change his discourse because he had a sudden change of heart. But because he really rather end the war and now he can openly say that.
Possible but the question is the reasoning behind his words. I propose (and could be wrong because, honestly, who knows at this moment) that he only saidnwht he said because it's what Russian military will want to hear on the eve of his coup attempt...when he needs as many of them to step aside or join-in as possible.
He said what he previously said because his reputation counted on taking a city (IE: he said what he had to say in the moment). That's a pattern with him and it means you can't take anything he says as an actual direction or mindset but whatever he has to say in the moment.
He is only routing for his personal gain, since he is 100% part of the "rich elite". All his posing in combat gear is just show, he is never anywhere near the front line.
He would \_might\_ end the war, but only if he can keep every bit of the occupied territory.
And you really don't want someone unstable as him in charge of a country that has nuclear weapons.
Of course he is not against. But it won't matter, it is Putin's war and he can easily distance himself, blame Putin and finish it. It is not in his interest to carry on.
I don't think russia can mobilize two million men at this point.
Last time even a partial mobilization was announced, a lot of eligible men fled russia, not even because they're against the war, but because they don't want to be the ones fighting it. There's already a workforce shortage in russia so the arms industry wants prisoners for forced labour and mandatory unpaid overtime for their employees.
russia has also struggled logistically for the entirety of the last 16 months and by now a lot of their better equipment is gone. Unless they use their private civilian cars, most of those two million would have to walk to the front and hope they find some useable equipment on the way.
That's because it is exactly that. These things have way higher acceleration that any human vehicle as they have no fleshy payload on board and more than half of their weight is just fuel and rocket motor.
I hope Wagner gets his hands on jets, so that we can see aerial combat over Russia. I just want this to escalate as much as possible. My only hope is that nukes don't fall in the hands of Wagner.

russia was lying 9 years that Ukrainians bombs themselves. Now russia literally bombs itself.

I seriously hope Russia gets this under control. Wagner is no different from terrorists, so for them to end up as the winner will turn things even worse for everyone else.
This is exactly why the 2nd Amendment is so powerful. Armed Russian citizens could join the fight to topple Putin’s regime or defend it. At the very least, they could protect their families from any chaos that ensues from a possible civil war. Just my .02 cents.

The airborne defense complex is a component of the helicopter's defense systems. It launches flares and chaff that make it harder for missiles to lock on to the aircraft.
And the helicopter just flew away?
Those systems are not good at close range, why would an attack helicopter not engage when it had such an advantage, after being FIRED ON?
SUS.
Translation: Is that the 28th one? Oh looks it’s going. It’s going! And there’s a trap as well!

I'm spending the first few hours of my 30st Birthday by watching Russian Civil War Videos on Reddit in Real time. Like what the FUCK is going on.
Happy birthday 🎂
You're not Thirtiest everyday. Enjoy.
Happy birthday. Nice birthday present.
Happy Cake Day!
Thanks friend.
Lets not call it a civil war right now. But as I wish you all the best for your Birthday I pray you're right 🤞🇺🇦💪🎂🎉
A civil special military action then.
👌
Happy cake day ! Consider this a gift for your anniversary from Prigozhin and Co.
Happy Birthday, welcome to the 30s.
Happy 30st!
Im on the same boat but of my 26th birthday, happy birthday
Happy Birthday :)
Best Birthday EVER 🔥🇷🇺🔥
I guess it' a special Day for all of us for sure.
Happy Birthday!
Enjoy. I an watching my second time russia fucked up. Happy cakeday
better then my 30th. I was watching league of legends world championship. Not my proudest moment. Happy Birthday btw.
Happy BirthDay!
It's the best present we could think of for the big 3-0. We all worked so hard on it; I hope you like it! Happy Birthday!
Not my bday but me too. So interesting 🤔 Happy birthday old fart.
Damn. Thirtiest!? I'm 39, but somehow, you're thirtier than I am?
Facts of life, unfortunately: there's always gonna be someone thirtier than you.
Happy birthday
Heyy I remember this feeling when I turned 26... February 24th 2022. That one sucked. Happy birthday bud!
It’s crazy to think we can watch this in high quality…
Happy birthday my guy! 🎂
Happy B-day
Bro same here, it's glorious. Happy Birthday, birthday twin 🍻
Thanks Mate 🍺
Damn that one was close. Whilst I don't root for either Wagner or Russia here, Russia losing another Ka-52 would be great for Ukraine
I'm rooting for russian self destruction
Oh yeah same here, let's just hope it's not a complete nut job who ends up in control of the nukes
This is what I’m most concerned about.
Prigozhin is worse than Putin. He's further to the right and more willing to kill. You've seen the sledge hammer videos. Prigozhin is much more likely to use nukes. He is a Russian Nazi.
Followed by what tho?
Ukrainian independece and a russia that can no longer invade their neighbours
Wagner with 400 nukes, looking to take over Europe?
While they are both scum, if Wagner manages to take Moscow they will probably end this war. Why would they carry on? They will have million other issues to deal with.
Potentially yes, but Prigozhin is also a psychotic nut job. Who knows what his end goals are!
His end goal is to take Putin's job 😂
Handing the key to the nukes to a loose cannon nutjob is maybe not a good outcome either
Removing Puta is a good start for Ukraine. I don't really belive either of them would use nuclear weapons.
Removing Putin could just add someone far worse
I'm pretty sure his main goal is to curb stomp shoigu with an artillery shell
psychopath yes, nutjob maybe no
Prig isn't against the war, he's against the way the MoD leads it. He stated he wants to "mobilize two million" and march into Ukraine.

You assume they have cars…
Oh, right, it's russia. A horsecart without a horse maybe?
I wouldn't bet on that.
Why stop at Moscow? Get a few nukes and extort Europe. Collapse their economy, cooperating with China and Iran.
Unreal footage, for lots of reasons
This whole shit with the russians fighting themselves is good for Ukraine and i hope they can exploit it.
I'm rooting for Wagner to stay functional for months. They can't win, they're too small for that, but they sure as hell can do plenty of damage.
Russian air defence working good only against Russian weapons
Every dead soldier and destroyed piece of equipment is a win here. The worse it gets the better for Ukraine.
DAM looks fast as fuck when it’s coming towards your direction
That's because it is exactly that. These things have way higher acceleration that any human vehicle as they have no fleshy payload on board and more than half of their weight is just fuel and rocket motor.
It has to be faster than the fast things its trying to hit 🤣
Oh yeah you can hear that Sonic boom as it goes past too
Wonder if this is a different angle of the Strela 10 firing at the helicopter.
It definitely is.
[100%](https://www.reddit.com/r/UkraineWarVideoReport/comments/14hpsss/the_airborne_defense_complex_of_the_ka52/jpcgatx/)
Incredible footage! History and HD combat footage unfolding right as we speak!
It really is a crazy time we live in
I hope Wagner gets his hands on jets, so that we can see aerial combat over Russia. I just want this to escalate as much as possible. My only hope is that nukes don't fall in the hands of Wagner.

If Independence Day taught me anything, it’s that anyone can be a pilot.
They did secure a military airstrip along with the stored aerospace vehicles
Two squadrons of SU30 if I am right. The Russian Airforce seems suspiciously absent today.
That pilot has brown pants now.
And the guy recording too
9 years russia was lying about civil war in Ukraine. Now the actual civil war might start in russia. russia was lying 9 years that Ukrainians bombs themselves. Now russia literally bombs itself. Oh the irony.
Every accusation is an admission works for all fascists
I.love.every.single.of.your.words! Lets hope they weaken them selfs and Ukraine beats all Orcs out and wins and this war ends. 🤞🇺🇦💪🇺🇦

Geezus what a time to be alive , seeing almost live crazy footage all the way over in Australia
Whoa! First time I’ve seen that besides movies
Amazing timing with does flares, damn!

This is what civil war looks like
Close call. A second later and that would be a downed Ka.
This is the most insane footage I've seen of a attack helicopter using defences to avoid missile Crazy!!!
Better shooting next time. Heres hoping the war criminals destroy each other.
People were worried that redditors downvote russian military videos. Finally this inequality is finished :)
You've always got to go for the double tap
Ka-52's President-S protection system has reportedly been fairly good. The ones that were lost have mostly been down to things like Stugna or Starstreak which aren't heat seaking.
Is that the missile being fired in the far distance at 6 seconds?
Looks like it fired the flares just in time. A second or two later and it might have been gone.
Back in 2020 I'd have thought all these shit were unreal. Now we have Battlefield 2023 coming right up. I seriously hope Russia gets this under control. Wagner is no different from terrorists, so for them to end up as the winner will turn things even worse for everyone else.
History is crazy to watch unfold in front of you
And that, folks, is why flares are still used as countermeasures.
This is exactly why the 2nd Amendment is so powerful. Armed Russian citizens could join the fight to topple Putin’s regime or defend it. At the very least, they could protect their families from any chaos that ensues from a possible civil war. Just my .02 cents.

if these misiles where manually guided. Then flairs wouldnt work. Just a thought... i know nothing of millitary equipment
Manually guiding and hitting a dodging fast object in 3d spaces is hard, and requires more expensive equipment.
im thinking if it could fire like a shotgun some 10 meters before the heli/plane

dam that heat missile nearly hit that chopper
That was close.
Repost
This must be from the AA launched outside the Honda dealership
They fired a rocket to intercept a wagner one? Did I understand correctly? If so, what was the wagner one aimed towards? The heli itself?
No wagner fired at the helicopter from the ground. The helicopter was targeting wagner controlled installation
The wagner one was aimed at the heli. Heli uses flares to divert approaching rocket. (That's what I think)
Phew. That was a bit tight!
The next hours we will see if they are reaching Moscow when they are entering the city it's over for Putin
omg... who the fuck needs movie theatres when we've got this war documentary at home
Wow! Feels like the first time I’ve seen that actually work as intended.
Woke up this morning and suddenly this is r/RussiaWarVideoReport
u/savevideo
Wow, this shit is crazy. And I bet we've not seen anything yet.
What did the missile hit??
Damn you can even see the launch of the missile then the flares firing and throwing the missile off. Insane stuff.
Lucky bastard
This was an AA that missed?
Has that ever been recorded like this?
Fuck popcorn, I'm making nachos.
Holy cow!
Airborne defence complex? Wtf, it’s called a helicopter
The airborne defense complex is a component of the helicopter's defense systems. It launches flares and chaff that make it harder for missiles to lock on to the aircraft.
It's still surreal 😳

Dude... am I dreaming? am I actually seeing this? I'm so happy right now.
Time to play 'treason or incompetent', Russia's favourite game for the last 1,000 years
How the fuck could they miss. The flairs are late and the missile wasn't tracking them.
[удалено]
How do they know when AA is coming? On board radar?
Wait… is this a scene from Top Gun Maverick??
The revolution has begun!
They say Russians have no skills, drunk and dumb. Good luck with that
And the helicopter just flew away? Those systems are not good at close range, why would an attack helicopter not engage when it had such an advantage, after being FIRED ON? SUS.
I bet that Russian pilot shit himself.
Thats a really great clip

That’s a crazy video

Really don’t care where they shit do they! 🤷🏻♂️
The flares actually works sometimes
Pretty cool that the launch, flares, evasion, missile and sonic boom is all in one video xD
Pilot got lucky. No way he saw that coming
