Members of the "Groza Battalion" have just released a compilation of recent clashes with Russian forces in the Serebryansky Forest. The clips showcase the unit utilizing Ukrainian-made RPV-16s to defend their positions against an assaulting Russian force.
The RPV-16 is a thermobaric grenade launcher manufactured in Ukraine with a maximum effective range of 600 meters. In certain circumstances, the range of the weapon system can be pushed out to 1,000 meters. According to Ukrainian forces, it is best utilized in urban conditions where the weapon can be used to root out entrenched Russian infantry inside of buildings, but from this video we can see that the weapon is being used with solid effects even in the wooded environments of locations like the Serebryansky Forest.
