Russian Night Assault Foiled By Thermal Drones
Published 6 months ago
Footage from the Ukrainian Spartan Brigade shows a Russian MT-LB armored personnel carrier attempting to deliver reinforcements to a front line fighting position. The Russians were hoping to use the hours of darkness to conceal their operation, but Ukrainian drones equipped with thermal sensors are able to see everything.
The MT-LB strikes a mine, resulting in a loss of mobility. The Russian soldiers that aren't dead or extremely wounded dismount but are rapidly picked off by Ukrainian quadcopter drones dropping grenades.
