Video description: There are guided weapons and are a threat to low-flying aircraft, especially helicopters. Guess what it is? Yes we’re talking about the man-portable air defence system or in short MANPADS. They are surface-to-air missiles that can be fired by an individual or a small team of people against aircraft. These missiles, affordable and widely available through a variety of sources, have been used successfully over the past three decades both in military conflicts, as well as by terrorist organizations. They have received a great deal of attention especially in the ongoing Russian Ukraine war. This video presents the top 8 MANPADS in the world today.
