The terrorist group linked to one Abdullahi Abubakar, popularly known as Dogo Gide claimed to have shot down the NAF helicopter with AK47 rifles.

AK-47 has a range of around 300m. If a helicopter is flying low an AK can surely bring it down

All of you fools should stop using your cesspit government's coined word "bandits" because it is not bandit, but terrorists. Google the meaning of bandits first to cure your pretense.
Always use the right word to describe the fulani herdsmen terrorists and bokoharam terrorists, and the right world is not bandits, but terrorists.

Either the army dont know physics, defense science or what projectiles and momentum is or he is just plain stupi.d

All you have to do is to target the rotor and hit it a few times

Hitting the blade at certain angle that can be achieved by luck via rapid firing can bring it down even

Helicopters are considered unsafe really because they are mostly unstable

im not supprised sha the other day I watched a video of army shooting at bandits abi Boko Haram...no coordination,no aiming just face direction and empty your bullets

It's really sad this is what nepotism breeds

you are very funny.... A military helicopter has alot of armour and yes helicopters fly low in war zones. But if the bandit really shot down the helicopter using an AK-47 the Nigerian Airforce really have alot of unqualified pilots.

"A military helicopter". What's the model of the aircraft? Not all are armoured. Also, armour piercing rounds exist

A military helicopter in a warzone is not armoured.. Did u read what u typed ?

It's a lie the helicopter was short down. Some of us have seen the recage it doesn't look like accidents, the helicopter was weaponised it shouldn't have been used for battle, this is why they need drone technology.

They promise to investigate the incident but are quick to discredit the report of the incident.

It's not an attack helicopter is it? It was on a rescue mission. You people jump to conclusions without thinking deeply and wonder why you have terrible leaders. 🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️


Well there's a video of bandits next to the helicopter. You can go and ask them so you stop jumping to conclusions

Just like ", UNKNOWN GUN MEN" ravaging the east fighting for Biafra. Nigeria is even to lenient, such a terrorist like Nnamdi Kanu should have been executed long ago.

see stop mentioning me..


is a civillian aircraft or a military aircraft ?

Transport aircrafts fly in warzones too, and they get shot at too... If the aircraft was shutdown by a AK-47 it is very serious.

From the little view I got of the crash wreck signature I could see the helicopter slammed into the floor in full power , looks like the crew pushed to full power to get out of the range of the bandit fire and it was it that full power they slammed the ground...The Mi17 is designed to take small arm fire without a problem because of its bottom armor plate and bullet resistant glass so what could have happened . I have two possible explanations :

1 : The helicopter when put into full power to get away during its lift off manuever got caught by its owns rotor wash and went into an irrecoverable spin .

2 : The side door was open during the takeoff and some of Dogo Gides boys shots where able to get in and hit the pilot who had control at the time ..
