Video: Ukrainian troops capture a Russian infantryman using a net launcher mounted on a drone

Soldiers from the 3rd Separate Assault Brigade used a drone equipped with a net launcher to neutralize a Russian soldier on the front lines.

Initially, they attempted to attack the occupier with an FPV drone, but it missed its target. After that, another drone dropped a net onto the Russian infantryman, who became entangled in it and was unable to free himself. He was subsequently neutralized using FPV drones.

The “Ptashka” net-launching system was developed by the Ukrainian company Ptashka Drones. The system is designed to intercept FPV drones and reconnaissance drones such as the Mavic, Autel, and Matrix.

The grid measures 3.7 × 3.7 meters, and the recommended firing range is 1 to 10 meters.
