POV Footage of Russian Su-25 Shootdown, Ejection

The Russia-Ukraine War has shown us many things, but this may be the first POV ejection ever recorded by a pilot. This video shows a Russian Su-25 being shot down by most likely a MANPADS considering there was no audio indicator from the radar warning receiver that an RF SAM was engaging the aircraft. The pilot attempts an endgame high G maneuver, but ultimately fails to evade the missile and ejects after impact. The pilot captures his aircraft impacting the field and the pilot miraculously survives impact, ejection, and landing.

No date or location provided. Amazing video.

I want you all to take away from this the speed in which events happen. In the span of 10 seconds this pilot is in his cockpit, then the ground.
