UA Drone with Thermals Hunting Storm Z

Footage from Ukraine’s 81st Airmobile Brigade of its drone strike unit hunting Russian Storm Z units. The thermal cameras grant the drones a distinct advantage when hunting at night and they easily spot soldiers huddling beneath the front glacis of a BMP. A few drone-dropped munitions send them scurrying for a new hiding place. The drones continue dropping ordnance on human-shaped hot spots. Thermal-equipped drones are a truly frightening capability.
