The Ka-52 does it by blowing the rotor blades off first, then firing the seats. That’s one checklist every pilot hopes they only ever read.

In soviet Russia, rotor dodges you.

Meanwhile, 10-20 or so people are killed by 6 rotor blades flying through the air.

If you think that's impressive you should see the turret ejection mechanism on Russian tanks...

Maybe unclog your ears 🤦🏻‍♂️ “It first blows its own blades off” You’re post is as fucking stupid as asking why a fighter pilot doesn’t smash through the canopy

The rotor system is designed to separate first, clearing the escape path before the pilot ejects—an incredible feat of timing and engineering

America doesn't have this technology. Only Russia.
