Russian sergeant shot down Su-25 in seven seconds VIDEO

Sergeant Alexei Nemikin served as a guardsman in an air defense platoon. He is the operator of a portable anti-aircraft missile system.

“I literally took down the target in seven seconds. Basically, if I don’t manage to do it in such a short time, the target just flies away,” Sergeant Nemikin said in a video released by the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation.

For the downed Su-25, Nemikin was awarded the Order of Courage by Russian President Mr. Vladimir Putin.

The Russian sergeant explains that long before the target approached his position, it was detected by a radar device. There were two Ukrainian targets, the first of which was shot down by his platoon leader, and the Su-25 “was handled by me”, Nemikin says. The sergeant then receives confirmation from the radar station that the Ukrainian Su-25 has been successfully shot down.

The Su-25 attack aircraft is the most downed in the war in Ukraine. Both from Russia and from the inventory of the Ukrainian Air Force. According to open sources, a total of 38 Su-25s were downed up to and including November 9. 15 Su-25s were Ukrainian and 23 Su-25s were Russian.

Just to recall, on February 24, Russia began a "special military operation in Ukraine" with the aim, as stated by Moscow, of "demilitarization and denazification" of that country.
