In what is probably one of the cleanest recordings of an aircraft shootdown in current history, a Russian helicopter is seen turning into a fireball and crashing to the Earth after an anti-aircraft strike.

I've been documenting combat footage for a long time, and I know when I'm looking at a video that will go down in history. This video, which was recorded this afternoon in Ukraine, shows one of the cleanest anti-aircraft shoot downs that has ever been recorded.

It is unclear at this time where this event occurred.
