Footage of the attack of a Russian Ka-29 helicopter of the Black Sea Fleet on the Ukrainian naval drone MAGURA has been published. The video was filmed near Crimea, as reported, there were only 4 naval drones. The MAGURA drone is modified and armed with an R-73 aircraft missile, technical information about the drone is on the channel. Despite the fact that the drone has an R-73 missile, it cannot use it, since the missile has a dead zone of about 300 meters. If the helicopter moves away at a distance of more than 300 meters, it can be hit by a missile. The helicopter fires from all types of weapons installed on board. A 7.62 machine gun, a GShG-7.62 automatic cannon and a 23-mm GSh-23L aircraft cannon are used. The authors did not show the full video, perhaps the second part will be released later.

Footage of real combat work of Russian interceptor drones armed with the Taiga net launcher. The military chronicle was filmed near the village of Kleshcheyevka in the Donetsk region, now this is the largest archive of interceptor drones that has been published online. The interceptor drones are used by the anti-aircraft missile battery, the 1442nd motorized rifle regiment, the 6th motorized rifle division, and the 3rd army corps. It is reported that thanks to the use of drones with the Taiga device, it was possible to gain a tactical advantage in this area and the activity of Ukrainian drones decreased to almost zero.

It is worth noting that the Taiga device was already copied in September and is also being produced in Ukraine, it intercepted 5 drones of the Russian army. There are also American analogues, they were shown earlier. In the drone war, and this can already be called that, with the help of the Taiga net thrower, 470 Ukrainian drones worth 130 million rubles were intercepted, mainly drones manufactured by DJI, and 9 agrodrones of the Baba Yaga type were also intercepted. Currently, drones armed with nets are the most effective means of combating drones, since effective electronic warfare systems that cover all frequencies have not yet been created. Judging by the information from the network, the Taiga net thrower is manufactured by the Russian company INMATTEN, surprisingly, against the background of current prices for military products, it is quite cheap, its price is 25,000 rubles or $ 258. The weight of the Taiga device is 270/350 g, depending on the type of net.

The drone with the Taiga net turned out to be successful, thanks to the interaction of Russian developers with military personnel. Which does not happen often. The Taiga net launcher is simple, essentially it is a pyrotechnic cartridge and a net that is attached to a drone, so far only to DJI drones. The drone hovers over another drone and the pyrotechnic cartridge shoots a net with weights, the net has a diameter of 3.6 meters, thus intercepting the drone. Intercepted drones are then picked up and repaired, it is worth noting that DJI drones are quite expensive. In the video, an overview of the Taiga device and its combat use in Ukraine.

The 433rd Regiment raised it's flag and the Russian flag over a high rise in Selidovo. The buildings are intact. The aerial view doesn't show fires except towards the west. All these point to the Ukrainians having given up on the town except towards positions in the west.

The better armored version of the Leo2 in Ukraine now has cope cages and K1 ERA

Turtle tank assault:

With the quest to have better protection with a barn on top reducing fire arks but also addon armor blocks/grid adding weight..
I don't know if a turret less ''stug'' style could become interesting like a improved Stridsvagn 103. Reducing weight, silhouette and complexity to add armor.

Panoramic shot of Selidovo. It looks pretty quiet except for one place. It seems little combat is taking place, and the Ukrainians have given up on this. I suspect reports of combat in Selidovo were actually postdated reports, with actual fighting already taken place and finished sometime ago.

The crew of the Russian BMP-3 and T-80 tank told how to best protect the combat vehicle from drones. Currently, in addition to "Mangals" and electronic warfare, tanks and BMPs use two types of additional protection against drones, nets and chains.
