    That’s why it likely was a real helicopter. This is a pretty low-powered explosion, designed to just disable the helicopter. Here’s a video of it on a real helicopter: https://xcancel.com/LucasGimne79974/status/2029851274955431963#m

    Same lack of rotor movement.

    And here’s a screenshot of the video of the explosion, clearly showing smoke going underneath the rotors:

    I don’t think Iran has the tech to make paint float in the air ánd survive an explosion.

      “Clearly showing smoke under the rotors”

      144p video

        Don’t believe your lying eyes I guess. A shaky 144p video is definitely proof the rotors stayed perfectly still though.

        I was hoping the video would show a clearly painted image but the visual evidence just doesn’t support it.
