Khankala Mi-26 disaster : ウィキペディア英語版
2002 Khankala Mi-26 crash

The 2002 Khankala Mi-26 crash occurred on August 19, 2002 when a team of Chechen separatists with a man-portable air-defense system brought down a Russian Mil Mi-26 helicopter in a minefield and resulted in the death of 127 Russian soldiers in the greatest loss of life in the history of helicopter aviation. It was also the most deadly aviation disaster ever suffered by the Russian armed forces,〔 as well as their worst loss of life in a single day since 1999.〔(A calamity, yet no end of war in sight ), ''The Economist'', Aug 22nd 2002〕
==Attack==

On 19 August 2002, Chechen separatist fighters with a Russian-made 9K38 Igla shoulder-fired, heat-seeking surface-to-air missile hit an overloaded Mil Mi-26 heavy transport helicopter, causing it to crash-land and burn at Khankala military air base near Chechnya's capital city of Grozny. The helicopter was ferrying at least 140 soldiers and officers belonging to various units from Russian Air Force base at Mozdok, Republic of North Ossetia–Alania.〔(THE HELICOPTER CRASH AND THE PRICE OF WAR ), ''The St. Petersburg Times'', August 23, 2002〕〔
According to Pavel Felgenhauer, "The missile hit one of the engines as the Mi-26 was approaching Khankala, and the helicopter crash-landed in a minefield that made up part of the federal military headquarters' perimeter defenses. Some of the survivors, attempting to abandon the wrecked Mi-26, are reported to have been killed by 'friendly' anti-personnel mine explosions."〔 The interior of the helicopter flooded with fuel and its jammed doors could not be opened.〔 Only the crew of five and 29 passengers managed to escape through the small cockpit exit hatch. At least four of surviving soldiers died over the next days from severe burns.〔
Russian forces from Khankala launched a search for the attackers immediately after the crash, but only managed to recover the spent tube that had contained the Igla missile at an earlier point in time.〔
