How unfortunate. I don’t think this would happen to them at home.
Extremely lethal
Seems like that second guy could have been doing more. Didn’t seem to care about the drone or even pull his gun out to try and shoot it down. I don’t think he realized how much danger he was in
I’d be interested to see what their injuries were if they indeed die
The drone didn’t explode that close to them and they were presumably wearing body armor

Having watched a lot of combat footage over the past years Ive seen a lot and this was a bit hard to make sense of as to why this was so lethal and why the guy who shoots at the FPV just keeled over after it went off. The other guy seemed to definitely take the brunt of that strike 100% , but shooter seems to take a step, look around, and just crumples. And my two theories as to what happened are, 1. The FPV explosive is full of ball bearings and they have gotten really good at packing them in to make a hell of a frag. Lots of little holes to bleed from and have a bit of a late reaction to.
Or 2. In addition to being a frag style FPV, I assume a lot of FPV explosives use a thermobaric explosive to pack an extra punch against the “bunkers” and trench dugouts, so the dude that just kinda crumpled had the adverse effects of a thermobaric explosive, just outside as opposed to in a bucket or closed space. TLDR: I thought this looked weird and overthought an answer while I ate my breakfast
Dude’s looked they don’t know how lethal an FPV drone is. A couple of shots in its general direction will not save them.
Imagine laying in the mud knowing noone is coming for you or your body even. Staying home would have prevented this
At this point, all soldiers should have a 12g w bird shot. Anything else is just sad
Loot no more
They were in surprisingly bad shape considering how far the drone exploded from them. Shrapnel doesn’t fuck around…
im surprised they’re not mandatory to hold shot guns and skeet them bitches out the ski
Such mixed feelings watching these. Fuck em they deserve to die and also, hard to watch someone die
frikkin Shrapnel
People saying it’s not that bad, but that’s a sizable explosion probably ~2m away, it’s probably packed with all kinds of shit, steel bearings, tungsten, on top of the explosive payload itself.
It’s uncanny how the armed soldier *looks* like he might have just barely survived, still standing, then a timeline of what – less than 1 minute before he’s down and out too.
Combination of blast injuries, internal hemorrhaging and yeah something pulmonary is going on there too. Not sure if it’s agonal breathing or his punctured lungs filling with air.
Really is crazy how there’s this “dead man walking” interval between the event and when they finally expire. These flying cameras are showing some dreadful realities of war.
Why isn’t Russia issuing shotguns at this point. Still tough to hit but at least have a chance.
Sticking together is like the worst strat and they never seem to learn. They really lost to shrapnel RNG hard.
Nap time. War is exhausting.
WHY DONT THEY JUST GET AS DEEP IN THOSE BUSHES AS POSSIBLE? The way the detonator works on most of those suicide drones, being in heavy foliage would make it extremely hard to get a good hit
Why aren’t shotguns used more. I would think the would be effective at taking down drones.

Just fucking sad. Dying like that.

Right after watching this, I watched [this video](https://v.redd.it/mizcggay3afd1)
It really shows you just how big the shrapnel range can be since you can see them landing in the water.
Rough
I did not expect that to kill them.. bro how? Like damn man this sucks. The convulsing man.. fuck
I would think that separating might have been a good idea but I guess human instinct is to cluster.
