   The Ka-52 ("48 red") from the 39th helicopter regiment of the 27th Mixed Aviation Division of the 4th Air Force and Air Defense Army of Russia (Dzhankoy airfield, Crimea) damaged the fuselage itself with a projectile when firing from its own 30-mm gun. The incident took place in 2016. It is alleged that this incident is not the first.

Get on this level, B-25!
