In reality (at least, as more reliable sources report) the accident took place on 16.09 during a routing training exercise for a pair of Ka-52, no spectators were around.

Things happen, nothing really outstanding.
Classic Russian laissez-faire!!
Of course, had this happened on a NATO range, Putin's fanboys would have lost their sh*t crowing about how amateurish we were
