The War in the Ukraine

This one is brutal. Don't think Mavics have infrared so at some point the Russians are using quadcopter with IR, and it's been known they are now manufacturing their own. This one by Sparta Battalion is dropping grenades on Ukrainian troop clusters at night.



Lancet takes out an Israeli supplied Amir or so it looks like one, and a BMP.



Artillery direct hit on a Ukrainian shelter. Appears to be drone directed and the optics on the drones look sharper than before.




Indonesian East Tribune is using footage I have seen on Telegram channels. I don't bother using Twitter lately and an embedded Twitter post uses too much space compared to an embedded YouTube video. Compared to other channels, East Tribune is diligently updated. There is no need to finish the whole length of the videos which are ended by casualty tallies on both sides.

I think both sides are on the receiving end of these nasty moskito. Not a lof of destructive power but the number of small shrapnell wound probably remove a lot of fighter on the front. Clearly demoralizing. You need jammer or at least top protection, that kind of small UAV are easy to build or modify.

This... This was crazy and could have ended very bad with an rpg but Ukraine troops pulled it off.

I have a feeling Ukraine troops didn't know there was that many Russian troops.

This makes no sense. Why did Russian withdraw when there was like only 5 attacking against 20 defenders in a fortified entrenched line? How did that BMP-2 bypass that hidden MBT alive at the very beginning?

It's sad and there are tons of videos like this. This is sheer carnage. The most shocking one I have seen had a dropped grenade took out both legs of a Ukrainian soldier.

Here (SoCal) they call it the bat sht crazy syndrome. When you're in a group of friends and you see a naked crazy guy coming after you nobody wants to deal with that crazy person if they don't have to even if all together can easily subdue the guy.

I think Russians saw these hard charging crazy people not caring if they live or die and said hell no... It really is a universal huma mentality to get away and avoid confrontation with someone that is mental.

The DJI Matrice does have infrared camera option. I don't think a Mavic has the carrying capacity for a grenade anyway.

As brutal as it may seem, this is pretty primitive. Just some civilian grade drones dropping low power grenades. Imagine what an actual military device designed for anti-personnel weapons could do. The age of drone wars is only beginning.
