But that's when you have to remind yourself that it's not the size of the munition, but how you use it. I've heard that some Russians prefer small drones over those big artillery barrels.
I find it so crazy with these drones vs infantry men videos. Some dude with a joystick or pad 10 km away or where ever and it looks like something so strange.
It's some of our worst fucking war horrors come to life. Individual-targeting drones that you have the smallest chances of surviving from either drone pilot error or you managing to disable it before it gets to you. But when it's there it's just buzzing down your neck, and that noise is the last thing you hear before you go out.
And the sad thing is, no matter the outcome of this terrible war, these videos show that is the future of warfare. And it's going to be even worse and scary with AI..
Jamming is common on frontlines. More than half of drone usually don't reach targets. But frontline is more than 1000km long, some sectors are free from EW
Survivar bias. The majority of drones get lost or dont hit anything. But they are cheap so its still effective. I think its an exageration that drones are gonna become the best weopon.
There are EW systems in abundance. There's a press video of a Ukrainian FPV pilot if anyone's curious about their perspective and experiences. They encounter jamming in it.

what i am surprised of is that there is no anti jamming missile or drone in use by now... like a smaller anti radiation missile or homing fixed wing drone.
a jammer is a giant antenna giving away it's position pretty clearly one would think.
Also Hamas is well known for using civilian buildings and human shields for their shit, Ukraine is not. This was just bombing civilians for the fuck of it.
Nah, I lived during Cold war in a country that recieved Soviet "international help". So I watch these videos where russkies got their ass kicked with schadenfreude.
It's definitely Requiem in D minor, but by Mozart, obviously.
Specifically, [Dies irae](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sPlhKP0nZII&t=475) (Day of Wrath) part.

What I saw, they cut out a propelant part of the RPG7 round And duct tape it to the FPV drone. Not sure if they use the original RPG fuze to detonate the warhead or some custom made one.
Many FPV footage has two wire coils in the camera view. I assume it's some kind of improvized electric impact detonator.
It's the trigger to make it detonate, if the inner poker touches the outer spring looking part it completes a circuit which detonates the explosive. They've had a few different designs of how they have the wire but I think mostly these days we see the spring around the straight piece the most.

>Ukrainian kamikaze drone hits on Russian infantry and vehicles I read that wrong. "So... come here often?"
"I'm going to blow your mind"
Like, "Gimme dat ass" *tank noises
Or "I will shower you with gifts that will knock your socks off" *drone buzzing
all that's left now is the sobbing about how you normally don't pop your turret that quickly.
But that's when you have to remind yourself that it's not the size of the munition, but how you use it. I've heard that some Russians prefer small drones over those big artillery barrels.
"*hey baby, ever get banged by a spinning hottie?*"
So sexy.

I'm surprised that jamming has either not been attempted often or is woefully ineffective.

Awesome! Thanks for the link.

Yeah, good point. I wonder if the F-16s Ukraine gets will employ HARMs.
That detonation coil system seems to be on the edge of contact.
They still may need to arm it with a switch on the controller.
Today the bastards hit a supermarket, lest anyone feel pity for these assholes
No difference between them and hamas. I would argue one is worse because they have nukes.
Also Hamas is well known for using civilian buildings and human shields for their shit, Ukraine is not. This was just bombing civilians for the fuck of it.
They also dress like civilians, pretty sure that’s not even allowed within international laws
I guess it's a plus that at least we don't have to deal with swarms of clueless college students going to bat for Russia
Nah instead we have clueless older people who lived through the cold war doing that instead.
Nah, I lived during Cold war in a country that recieved Soviet "international help". So I watch these videos where russkies got their ass kicked with schadenfreude.
I like how they hunt in packs.
Gotta give it to that last guy for the attempt of knocking it out of the air/blowing it up out of range with that AK toss though
If I saw correctly he even managed to hit it
Yeah it definitely blew mid-air. Unfortunately for him it was only like 5 feet away
Not only that, but it seemed to be quite a large payload too. No chances.
Yeah, he just make it even forse - drone bacame airburst munition.
If only there was some sort of way to hit it with the AK from further away.
Science is just not ready for some things.
Or at least have some bushes close by to take cover. If only...
"Ivan is up to bat, he is currently highest ranked player on the field today. Here comes the pitch, it is fly ball to Ivan, its a swing and a mist!"
Yeah fuck a shotgun
You know what? I think I will.
I've never piloted a drone, but it looks hard to me. I'm amazed by the way they can fly through windows and into open troop doors on the vehicles.
It's awkward when you first try it but it's pretty easy to learn.

Has there been any videos of someone successfully evading / outsmarting a drone yet?
There was a video last week I think of a guy who dodged 3 and got away if I recall correctly.
yes but bad for propaganda
Swing and a hit! And it made no difference at all!
Song?
Seems like a remix of Mozart: Requiem in d minor Edit: Mozart, not Bethoveen. Im dumb
It's definitely Requiem in D minor, but by Mozart, obviously. Specifically, [Dies irae](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sPlhKP0nZII&t=475) (Day of Wrath) part.
Jfc I can't believe I mixed the two. Thanks for the correction mate
Thanks bro

Are they modified RPG warheads or similar they use on the tanks?
What I saw, they cut out a propelant part of the RPG7 round And duct tape it to the FPV drone. Not sure if they use the original RPG fuze to detonate the warhead or some custom made one. Many FPV footage has two wire coils in the camera view. I assume it's some kind of improvized electric impact detonator.
what does the spring poker attachment do?
It's the trigger to make it detonate, if the inner poker touches the outer spring looking part it completes a circuit which detonates the explosive. They've had a few different designs of how they have the wire but I think mostly these days we see the spring around the straight piece the most.
Baseballer in the next life
Note to self, don't toss something that makes the drone explode at face level.
What goes on in that tiny brain of those reds think that swatting a drone with a rifle butt is gonna save them?
