(NSFW) Drone Eliminates Russian Troops With Modified Grenade
Published 2 years ago
Footage shows the defeat of multiple Russian troops by means of modified grenades being dropped by a helicopter style drone.
The clarity of the video allows us to identify the projectile, which appears to be Bulgarian manufactured 30mm RHV-HEF (high explosive fragmentation) rounds, which are designed to be shot out of various grenade launchers such as the AGS-17, AG-17A, and the AGS–30 AGLs. However, these rounds have been modified with stabilizing tail fins and point-detonating nose fuze, which allows them to be dropped accurately from a drone and explode on impact without the normal arming requirements. The munition's specifications claim a seven meter kill radius.
The first round appears to seriously wound a Russian soldier. The video transitions into the next clip which shows 2-3 more Russian troops now treating the wounded man. Another round is dropped, and it lands in close proximity to the soldiers. The exact number of killed or wounded cannot be determined from this video.
