War in ukraine

The internet dissected the presentation video of the Ukrainian "Flamingo" missile. It turned out that instead of real footage, the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense used computer graphics and clips from movies.

The Ukrainian Ministry of Defense officially presented the "new cruise missile Flamingo." In the video, besides the missile's characteristics, "footage" of the missile launch is shown. Many on the internet doubted the authenticity of the footage, as the "Flamingo" looked very much like the German "V-1" from World War II, and launched an investigation. It turned out that the presentation used footage from the 1965 film "Operation Crossbow", clips of the launch of the American "Tomahawk" missile, and CGI videos from YouTube. The presentation did not contain a single real shot of the missile, and users noted that Zelensky was previously an actor and owned a film studio.
