Military footage released by the Al-Qassam Brigades documents a close-range shoulder-fired missile launch targeting an IDF helicopter over Gaza. The engagement utilizes a legacy MANPADS to challenge low-altitude Israeli air support. While a direct hit cannot be independently verified, this tactical attempt highlights the persistent threat of shoulder-fired air defense systems in dense urban combat zones.
Expert Insight:
Even unconfirmed surface-to-air missile launches force military pilots to fly more conservative flight profiles and heavily deploy expensive countermeasure suites.
