Russian BTR Repeatedly Pummeled By Drone Dropped Grenades
Published 2 years ago
A pair of Ukrainian consumer drones take turns dropping several 40mm and similar grenades onto a Russian BTR-82. The armored vehicle had only recently been abandoned for whatever reason. It was reportedly too deep into enemy territory for the Ukrainians to recover themselves, so they decided to permanently take it out of the fight.
While the projectile grenades are not intended to defeat armored vehicles, they are designed with small shaped charges that can be seen punching holes into the vehicle, but with limited effect. The Ukrainians use several to ensure there is enough damage that the vehicle will not be operating against them anytime soon.
