"The idea of utilization nails on a drone could be a possibility for air-to-air fight ... This approach, though unconventional, deserves some interest, as it seems a successful way to neutralize foe drones," the record read. Kyiv Message found review coming from a Ukrainian FPV drone operator, who rejected the method as "uncertain," taking note that connecting nails incorporates unnecessary weight to the UAV, giving little practical value.

A more effective sky combat strategy is actually to tie a long string with a little weight to the drone. Through soaring above the adversary quadcopter, the thread can easily knot in the foe's rotors," the Ukrainian servicemember claimed. "If the captain is proficient good enough, he can even take the adversary drone back to managed region as a trophy," he added. Self defense Express likewise highlighted that Ukraine's Defense Troop are actively making use of anti-aircraft FPV drones to counter Russian reconnaissance UAVs.

Along with Ukrainian soldiers on the cutting edge frequently being without resources, they have been obliged to introduce. An online video from the "Wild Hornets" unit-- a volunteer group that constructs FPV kamikaze drones for the Army of Ukraine (AFU)-- presented a Ukrainian FPV drone equipped with an AK-74 attack rifle firing at Russian postures in Donetsk. Another video recording circulating on social media sites featured Ukrainians evaluating an FPV drone geared up with an RPG-18 grenade launcher.

Additionally, Ukrainian forces have actually begun utilizing fire-spewing drones against Russian placements in and also woods. These drones storm down liquified metallic, utilizing a pyrotechnic make-up referred to as thermite, on their targets. This brand new weapon was actually cultivated through a Ukrainian start-up that produces eruptive units, including thermite costs, developed for drone employment.
