(NSFW) Russian Rifleman Fails To Shoot Down Incoming FPV Drone
Published 10 months ago
Harrowing drone footage shows a Russian soldier's last stand as he attempts and fails to shoot down Ukrainian drones. First he fires at the hovering observation drone with no luck, and then he quickly transitions to firing at an explosive-laden FPV drone.
The bomb drone approaches quickly and detonates squarely on the soldier's head, killing him instantly. The psychological impact of drones on frontline fighting troops has to be several times greater than any known sniper threat in the history of war.
