I'm gunna guess maintenance issue on this one. Russia has been pushing their equipment very, very hard this war and they don't seem to be fully keeping up with maintenance.

Imagine going about your day and a rando military chopper just goes down lmao.

Yeah, no joke! That would certainly be the event of the month for me.

Or, waaay too much pre-flight vodka.

Curse you, ludacius, for beating me to my joke by only... 2 hours. Practically concurrently!
