The wheels are coming off the russian war machine hard right now.
Even just the basic logic of two helicopters flying one after another in a neat line like this doesn’t make sense to me, it gives the drone two tries at the same manuever.
It is lazy, sloppy and reveals the russians don’t actually know what to do with their helicopters because the russian military has become so dysfunctional.
Are these pilots robots? Why would they fly so predictably?
It was a matter of time before they scored one. I remember watching and hearing about so many near hits from drone operators.
I think it is an expression of how poorly russia is deploying its aviation that Ukraine is able to predict and intercept russian attack helicopters with FPV drones like this. It is a failure at a basic level and demonstrates how much worse shape the russian military is in than it appears given the offensive they are conducting and all.
They already shot an helicopter down with an FPV drone
Edit: this marks the 3rd time
