The Mi-25 combat helicopters remain the backbone of the Syrian Army's air strike force. A video of the attack by a pair of "flying tanks"appeared on social networks.

It is interesting that one of the crew members - the pilot-operator-filmed what was happening.

Rotorcraft flying over the countryside at a low altitude rained down unguided missiles on the enemy. After hitting their targets, they turned around to return to base.

"Twenty-fifth", apparently, used 80-mm NAR S-8. Their weight can reach up to 15.2 kg. The flight range is up to 2200 meters.

Previously, the more compact 57-mm S-5 was actively used, but now, according to military experts, the stocks of these ammunition have already been exhausted.

Such turntables are also armed with four-barrel YakB-12.7 machine guns, which have a rate of fire of up to 4,500 rounds per minute, and 9M17P anti-tank guided missiles of the Falanga-PV complex. Such ATGMs are no longer used anywhere else except in Syria.

The Syrian Air Force also continues patrolling transport routes. Recently, a new video featuring the Mi-24P was shot. Its author - a fighter of the government forces-captured the low flight of a helicopter over a car.
