Drone Attack, CASEVAC Out The Back
Published 6 days ago
This footage, from the perspective of an attacking Ukrainian FPV drone, shows a Russian utility/supply truck commonly referred to as a Buhanka (loaf) fleeing at all possible speed. Given a low overall speed and tendency to be used as ammo carriers, these trucks are often targeted by drones. At 00:14, though, we see that ammunition isn't what this particular Buhanka is carrying. Instead, what appears to be a soldier on a stretcher is shoved out the rear of the truck. It is unclear whether this was a last-ditch attempt to save the patient, prove that the truck is being used as an ambulance, or to bait the drone away from the truck. In any case, despite the lightening of the load, the drone catches up to and impacts the vehicle.
