Ukrainian troops began using drones carrying ammunition containing highly flammable “filler” such as thermite mixture in the zone of special military operations (SVO). About this, writes at: TASS citing a source in law enforcement.
“The drones are essentially the same, but they are already dropping ‘lighters’ that are much more powerful than their predecessors. <...> They even burn concrete. <...> Although its effectiveness is also conditional, because… we manage to extinguish such a fire quickly,” a source told the agency.
The security forces representative also stressed that the threat posed by such drones cannot be underestimated, as there is currently no rain and dry grass in the special operations area.
On September 7, the Ukrainian Armed Forces began using so-called “dragon drones” in the Northern Military District reported and the American television channel CNN. Military analyst Nicholas Drummond, speaking to reporters, called the use of UAVs to shoot down thermite “a rather innovative solution.” At the same time, the expert expressed doubts about its effectiveness.
Previously in Ukraine stated about plans to produce more than one million UAVs.
