Footage that surfaced on Telegram today with a Rudenko watermark on it captures the moment a Russian loitering munition strikes a Ukrainian self-propelled gun. According to Telegram, the Ukrainian vehicle was destroyed.
At this time we're unable to independently verify the claims that the vehicle seen being struck by the drone was in fact destroyed. There is an equally high chance that the vehicle was only temporarily disabled by this strike and was not in fact a total loss.
Unfortunately for Reddit, Twitter, and Telegram, there are varying degrees of destruction when it comes to military equipment and personnel. The word "destroyed" is not generally used when there is a fire on top of a piece of armor. It's generally used when the armor is rendered entirely ruined via massive damage to a majority of the armor's systems.
