Now ... That is a nice one

According to John Kerry, this is the smoking proof Putin is supplying high tech hard-ware to the separatists hell-bent on destroying the nice Ukrainians helicopters protecting the Sloviansk civilian population.
Either that or the last time it was fired in anger, tovarish Vladimir (Lenin that is) was still probably doing sand castles on the black sea...
