We have been drowned by videos that are computer made fakes and simulations. My BS bell is ringing on this one. No proof just a gut feeling on this one.

Well we will just have to wait and see if the shot is officially recorded as the 2nd longest one and moving the other 2nd recorded longest one to third place!

I have a gun that could possibly make this shot, just not a shooter behind it.

The Russian soldier would have been very safe with me shooting at him at this kind of distance.

24 second vids that show not much,

In the IR imaging you can see the target?s arm and the space between the elbow and the body. IR cannot do that at the distance claimed here.

Red can you post, or give a link of that image you speak of, just curious!

Rays OP has the original IR video of the guy shot by the Ukrainian soldier.

Some of the fakes I have seen of helicopters and jets being shot down that are clearly fakes or simulations. If you see a video that show a Russian in afterburner and the exhaust is visible smoking, it aint real. In real world a jet in afterburner quits smoking when it lites up. The US studied a MIG-21 obtained by Israli and detail disassembled the engine trying to find out why it did not smoke while ours did except when in burner. After several flights, the mig started smoking. Turned out they used a higher grade of fuel.

I have seen videos sent to me by the guys in USN Fighter Squadron 31 I served with videos they acquired from unknown places. I will see if I still have any of those.
