Abandoned BMP Catastrophically Destroyed by FPV Drone
Published 1 month ago
FPV drone footage released by Russian forces shows the catastrophic destruction of a Ukrainian BMP. It's unclear what caused the vehicle to be abandoned, but when the Ukrainian troops left the vehicle they left all of the hatches open, making the vehicle an easy kill for Russian forces. Had the hatches been shut, the FPV drone would likely not have been capable of breaching the vehicle's armor. This would have been a two-fold net win for the Ukrainians. In order for the Russians to destroy the vehicle with the hatches all buttoned up, they would have either had to expend a great number of explosive resources in the form of artillery and FPV drones, or they would have had to dispatch Russian infantry to the area exposing them to Ukrainian drones and artillery.
