Personally I am unconvinced it was a Stinger. Missile flight seems too slow. I suspect a Javelin in direct attack mode. The operator can switch quickly and with minimum deflection in a head on shot they are lethal against attacking helicopters.

Edit: the one thing that mildly bugs me is the camera shot looks 'too perfect'! In flat terrain where was the vantage point and, and, and? Much disinformation and CGI on all sides.

I could pick fault (cos it's mechanical good, but aesthetically shite 🥴) but I won't.
I'll focus on it being quirky, cool British ingenuity at its best. And on a shoestring budget. Not the result of zero skill & a blank cheque, handed to a custom car builder 😃


PS...
The lad who owns the YouTube channel has massive gonads. He's happy to ride around in such creations. And his reaction is always priceless 🤣

So some anonymous Twitter a/c purporting to be from Poland/Hungary or Czech or Slovak republics.....? Could be! Plausible enough but strict provenance maybe 2/10...... The important thing is they have multiple lethal options.
