A RUSSIAN helicopter has been blasted out of the sky by Ukrainian forces using a British missile for the first time.

Dramatic footage shows the moment the Mi-28N is hit by the Starstreak in the Luhansk region of eastern Ukraine.

The Starstreak is the world’s fastest surface-to-air missile and can travel at three time the speed of sound.

Ministry of Defence sources said it’s the first time the missile has been used to bring down a Russian plane.

In the video, the chopper can be seen skimming the treetops before it’s hit in the tail by the Starstreak.

The missile can be seen lifting off through the trees towards its target.
