Whether Russia loses or wins this war, the name of helicopter pilot Maxim will be forever recorded and remembered by the Russian secret service to carry out assassinations, and in August 2023, Maxim flew a Russian Mi-8 transport helicopter to defect, accompanied by navigator Kushbacht and mechanic Nikita who refused to surrender and was subsequently shot dead by the Ukrainian army.
Helicopter pilot Maxim was born into a family of pilots, his grandfather was a Russian aircraft pilot, this old man sacrificed his life for the country because of a flight mission, while his grandson chose to betray Russia.
Maxim's mother has been rebellious since childhood, fell in love with drug-addicted punks, and has since broken with the family, Maxim was raised in his grandfather's family, and Maxim's father was sentenced for a crime, so he missed Maxim's childhood. However, Maxim seems to have taught Maxim but not how to love his country, and after Maxim's parents divorced, her mother became with a Korean, and a few years later, Maxim's mother broke up with the Koreans and chose to live in Ukraine.
After the start of the Ukrainian-Russian war, Ukrainian intelligence found her and asked her to help them guide her son to treason, which shows that Russia's secrecy of important people is still not in place.
With the efforts of Maxim's mother, Maxim was shaken, perhaps losing his parents' love since he was a child, or his yearning for family affection, or the $5 million bonus moved him, and he decided to defect in early August 2023 after a long conspiracy.
His plan was so successful that the Russian Air Force had strict control over helicopters on combat missions, and all the crew members were issued weapons except for the pilot, so if you wanted to defect, it was very difficult unless all the crew members agreed. However, Maxim discovered a loophole in the management of the Russian army, that is, the management of aircraft flying in the country is very loose.
The crew was not issued weapons for self-defense that day, as they saw no danger in flying domestically.
After the helicopter took off, in order to prevent detection by enemy radars, they turned off navigation and relied on the pilot's manual to perform the flight mission. At that time, Maxim's crew, including the ground tower personnel, did not pay attention to this behavior at the beginning of the plane's deviation from course, believing that it was a lost road, an unintentional driving error. It was too late for straight planes to fly off the state border and enter Ukraine.
The crew resisted stubbornly after the plane landed, and they refused to surrender and sacrifice without weapons.
Navigator Kushbacht's friend, who is also a pilot, told reporters that Kushbacht's father suffered a stroke, he was the only source of income for the family, and the pilot had lived in the same dormitory as the defecting pilot Maxim, and he told reporters: I don't want to say his name - this name makes me sick. This man ate at the same table and slept in the same barracks as me, but we never fully knew who he was. He betrayed not only his team, but also his homeland, his people. I think he should be executed. I don't want him to die quickly, he has to die slowly. ”
Maxim will be defined as treason, forever hunted down by the Russian special services, I don't know if he has the chance to spend all the $5 million.
