Yeah but then it’s still gonna be… wriggling
They could’ve got what they wanted if they turned around
Thank you. I think this nuance is often lost by those barely paying attention

They don’t aim upwards really because the missile would chase the flare as it falls and bring the defending plane right back into the field of view of the seeker. The flares are supposed to pull the missile away from the aircraft. Source: my plane has flares.
I will also say that “detonating” is a very silly word for this situation because they burn rather than explode. This shouldn’t understate the danger though of ingestion of a burning flare into an engine (modern helicopters like this have small engines that power the rotor) or impact with the rotor which has the potential to cause an even more violent end. If the helicopter is operating with its side doors open, that flare could even enter the cabin and cause serious injury if not loss of the whole aircraft. All of this to protect sales to an evil dictator (NK)
TLDR: Indian government froze the bank accounts of an election competitor so he could not even pay the entry fee to compete. USA said that “we encourages fair, transparent, timely legal processes”. Indian governing party is offended at the accusation and summoned the US diplomat.
Edit: India changed to Indian governing party for accuracy

Yeah. Despite fucked up beliefs we was engaged in respectful dialogue which is better than most
I don’t mean to have an emotional fist fight, and I think Israel has a bad track record for avoiding civilian casualties to say the least, but I don’t understand what Israel would have to gain by using expensive bombs on a cemetery. Just making sure we remain credible in our criticism of israel
Edit: thank you for the replies guys. It helps me understand what looked like a propaganda article at first glance
All my scam calls come from numbers in my area code or close by

Why they gotta be white?
Even as close as we are now it took a long time and is computationally intensive
There is something fascinating about getting a glimpse of how truly complex and incomprehensible the world is. There’s a reason Fire and Water are so hard to replicate with mathematical processors (in CGI)
This has gotta be AI cuz I had like 3 strokes reading this
