Ukrainian Mobile Anti-Drone Unit Brings Down Shahed
Published 9 months ago
Cell phone footage recorded near Kharkiv by Ukrainian forces shows a mobile anti-drone team bringing down a Russian Shahed drone with overwhelming fire. It's unclear if they simply forced the drone to crash, or caused enough damage to the device to make it fall to the Earth prematurely.
According to the source of this footage, the entire purpose of the unit is to drive through known Shahed routes to get ahead of them. Once spotted, the group pulls off to the side and engages with overwhelming heavy machine gun fire in an attempt to drop the drone before it can reach its intended target.
