But judging by the footage, the vehicles targeted by anti-tank guided missiles (ATGMs), launched from a Russian Ka-52 attack helicopter, not only look like tanks, but are actually farm tractors and combine harvesters.
The video also shows that the electro-optical system of the Russian Ka-52 attack helicopter is so bad that the crew could not determine what they were targeting.
Then it turned out that the target was an agricultural tractor-machine gun. While the Russian Ministry of Defense stated that it is a German-made Leopard 2 tank.
