Although the UAV is a civilian version, it is equipped with several combat capabilities at once.
The regional defense army from Chernivtsi informed about a unique award on their Facebook page. They managed to shoot down a Russian drone with an approximate cost of $7,000.
As our defenders noted, this is a civilian drone that the Russian invaders have converted for military purposes. The drone is equipped with thermal imaging equipment and can release explosives.
When the Russians tried to conduct reconnaissance to adjust their artillery, the enemy “bird” was shot down on the combat positions of the 92nd battalion of the 107th district defense brigade, operating in the Kharkov direction.
As the warriors noted, it is often very difficult to “take down” such drones, even civilians, with standard small arms, but our army succeeds thanks to its high shooting skills.
In total, according to the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, according to official estimates, during the war our army shot down about two thousand enemy drones.
Previously Focus The Ukrainian Armed Forces reported that they shot down the Russian experimental unmanned aerial vehicle “Merlin-VR” and explained what its features were.
We also told you that Transcarpathia intelligence officers are planning to set up a mini-fleet of five strike UAVs for a special operation against the Russian army.
