after Russian military drone with a Canon camera installed, the Ukrainian military shot down Drone Mavic 3production DJI, adapted to carry a grenade inside the “bomb bay”. Pay attention to the quotes, because the bomb bay was a cup of coffee! Although the information was plausible, it was published by The Sun and has not been confirmed by other news outlets.

Problems with logistics prevented attackers

The fact to be taken into account when believing in the image (see below) is that Russia was not ready to invade Ukraine. Believing in a quick victory and telling their soldiers that the population would “welcome” them, the Armed Forces did not take care of supply chains and send more military equipment. So using civilian dronesas in the case Mavic 3 in the photo, it may have been a way Russian soldiers found to carry out anti-personnel attacks with small grenades. And if it’s true, there’s a chance drone even get robbed Russiansas there are several reports of looting invading army.

In any case, this story also serves to boost the morale of Ukrainian soldiers and civilians in a hard and hard war against the second largest military force in the world. It is estimated that there are 10 Russian soldiers for every Ukrainian soldier in eastern Ukraine.

Despite extensive training and restructuring of its armed forces after the invasion of Crimea, Ukraine does not have much modern equipment. One of your best weapons is Turkish drone Bayraktar TB2. Civilians and soldiers have also adapted commercial drones to assist in defensive operations against Russian occupiers. Andrey Pokrasa15 years old, used his drone inform the Ukrainian army about the location of the enemy army column.

Another case occurred with Ukrainian soldiers who used the same. Mavic 3 model and Phantom 3 drones for transportation VG18 grenades. These bombs will automatically detonate after a few seconds even if the main detonator has not detonated – while other types of grenades can fail even with the main detonator activated.
