61st Jager Infantry Brigade Uses Drones to Hunt Russian Armor
Published 2 years ago
Video released by the 61st Jager Infantry Brigade and translated by WarTranslated.com shows artillery and drones being used in a coordinated fashion to destroy Russian armor.
The 61st Jager Infantry Brigade was initially a mechanized infantry brigade based out of Zhytomyr Oblast. They are a relatively new unit stood up in 2015 as a reserve motorized formation with the specific mission of defending the forest lands of the north as well as in the swampy terrain of the Pinsk Marshes.
In 2019 the Jager Infantry Brigade was brought out of the reserves in compliance with a directive from the Ministry of Defense and the Armed Forces General Headquarters. When this happened, the unit was re-designated as a light infantry brigade due to the difficulty of operating mechanized vehicles in their designated areas of operations.
Today the 61st is being used in a coordinated role with their baked in artillery assets to target Russian armor. This video was recently released by the Brigade and was translated and subtitled by the people over at WarTranslated.com. which is a great resource to checkout.
