Ukrainian military personnel described how drones are helping to flush Russians out of their cover
Ukrainian drone operators are using heavy munitions to strike Russian troop positions and force the occupiers out of cover. Military personnel described the specifics of drone operations on the front lines and tactics for engaging the enemy.
Senior Sergeant Roman Pidlubny, a battle captain with the 1st Battalion “High-Altitude Predators” of the 59th Assault Brigade of Unmanned Systems named after Yakov Handzyuk, spoke about this during an Army TV livestream.
“Almost every day or every other day, we encounter situations where we have to target concrete shelters. Unfortunately, these are our former pillboxes, into which the enemy has infiltrated, and they are truly very difficult to ‘take out.’
So now we’re using this method: we attach bombs weighing between 8 and 14 kilograms—with a delayed detonation—to heavy bombers, descend as low as possible, and drop them.
We try to aim for a crack so that the explosion occurs from the inside. This will cause much more damage than if it were to explode from the outside,” Roman Pidlubny said
