DPICM and FPV Drones Pummel Russian Infantry
Published 9 months ago
Drone footage provided by Ukraine’s 501st Marine Battalion near Krynky, Kherson Oblast, on the left bank of the Dnipro River. A Russian infantry squad lurks in the skeletal remains of a forest, is spotted by drones, and showered with 155mm DPICM bomblets. Unmanned by the artillery barrage, they decide to exit stage left. An FPV drone dives in and picks off a straggler like a wolf thinning a herd. Though the Ukrainian Army has not been able to push enough combat power across the river to launch a convincing offensive in that sector, they are managing to tie down Russian units which would otherwise be employed elsewhere.
