Observation Tower Knocked Out By Ukrainian Loiter Munition
Published 1 years ago
Footage from the Ukrainian 77th Separate Air Mobile Brigade shows the targeting of a Russian electronic observation tower in Bakhmut.
The composition of the Russian system isn't know, but it likely contained thermal imaging cameras with powerful lenses as well as automated monitoring sensors, making it hard for Ukrainian units to operated unobserved. The destruction of the tower will degrade the Russian military's ability to keep control of Bakhmut.
