Ukrainian Machine Gunner Engages Shahed Drone
Published 10 months ago
A Ukrainian machine gunner records as he attempts to shoot down a Russian Shahed long range loitering munition passing through the sky above Sumy Oblast.
The heavy machine gun, possibly a Dshk, NSV, or Kord, fires 12.7×108mm nato material rounds at the aircraft. While not the most effective anti aircraft gun out there, should the gunner land a lucky shot, a single bullet should effectively take down the loitering munition.
