  1. I saw this posted as russian drone couple of hours ago, was it really just UA footage and claimed as their own? They seem to do that often.

  2. Give Ukraine thousands of these things. Burn the orcs out of their positions then have a swarm of explosive drones finish off the fleeing orcs.

  3. That just seems so sci fi to me or something out of a terminator movie. Drone dropping a precise line of fire on positions. 

  4. I thought it was just flying low to hit something, then it panned out and I was like oooohhh.

  5. I am amazed we haven’t seen more of this type of attack. It looks like you could create chaos in enemy positions, rolling along a trenchline for instance.

  6. We were playing around with the idea of burning down the trees to make targeting by drone easier, never managed to find a drone applied solution tho that would be consistently usable. Napalm grenades were an idea but we never quite managed to get the finishing touches on it. Besides we never got the green light to test them in the field (probably for good reason, I’m not sure what the legality of such weapons actually is). So I must say I admire that they managed to not only find a solution but also one this technical and this effective. I wonder how they get the reaction to start mid flight and how they ensure the material isn’t lost on the way to the target area. This takes some smarts that are way above my level. Awesome stuff. This should make target acquisition and planning of assaults on those positions much easier, now that you can actually see what you’re dealing with.

  7. Dude those tree lines are some of the most hard to assault positions besides trenches, and they put trenches there too. This is genius.

  8. Now, fly these thermite-throwers to every oil refinery and oil storage facility in range…

    Let me see a bulk storage tanks cope cage deal with

  9. unfortunately russia will be able to copy this pretty easy. lets hope UKR has an early mass production advantage

    This would work on an advancing column too. thermite on top of a tank is gonna do some damage.
