Russian TV Program Uses Video game footage In Segment Celebrating Armed Forces
Is it Syria? Iraq? Afghanistan? No, it's Arma-3, available at a store near you...
As battlefield action shots go, the one shown on Russian state TV's flagship weekend news program was of exceptional quality: a short clip, seen through what appeared to be a sniper's scope, showing an armored vehicle in flames, destroyed ostensibly by Russian air power.
The clip was part of a segment illustrating the fate of Roman Filippov, the pilot who was shot down over Syria.
