Russian Logisitics Truck Destroyed by FPV Drone Strike
Published 9 months ago
Two views of a drone attack on a Russian logistics vehicle was just released by Ukrainian forces. The video shows the pursuit, destruction, and battle damage assessment of the entire attack, providing an interesting perspective into Russia's lack of logistics security.
One of the things that I have found most interesting throughout the Russo-Ukraine war is that neither side really seems to put any emphasis on security for their logistics vehicles. Obviously, they aren't fighting an asymmetrical war, so the risk of their logistics vehicle being ambushed by a small group of Partisans is likely small, but by now you would think both sides would have a good understanding of the risks posed to their soft target vehicles by drones.
You would think, that at the very least these vehicles would be traveling in small columns regardless of the distance so that the troops involved could execute some form of bump plan for survivors and wounded should their vehicles be destroyed or disabled en route to their destinations, but that repeatedly appears to not be the case, as evidenced by this short video.
