RESTRICTION SUMMARY: APAwire CLIENTS ONLY SHOTLIST: APAwire - APAwire CLIENTS ONLY, Russia- 28 December 2022. Army Aviation repair brigades rapidly eliminate damage caused to helicopters within special military operation. STORYLINE: Army Aviation helicopter crews from the Western Military District (WMD) continue escorting military convoys, delivering personnel and military shipment, providing air support to units, as well as destroying military facilities of the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU). All the flights of the multi-purpose attack helicopters are conducted at extremely low altitudes to prevent being detected by enemy air defence facilities. The installation of plates over the damaged parts is a simple task for engineers. More effort is required in repairing the internal parts of a helicopter. Mi-35M is equipped with powerful electronic control systems. Special on-board facilities allow to prevent graver damage. The helicopters are provided with antennae that receive the radiation produced by enemy missiles, as well as sensors that determine where a threat heads from. It allows the on-board defence system to operate promptly for saving the crew. The helicopter has 20 unguided projectiles under each wing. In addition, Mi-35M can be equipped with anti-tank guided missiles. While some Army Aviation crews from the Western Military District (WMD) are still returning from operation, the others are preparing for their flight. The airfield operates uninterruptedly to provide landing and taking-off. Each combat task is preceded by scrupulous preparatory activities. Footage by /APA
