Unmanned Systems Forces Commander Robert “Magyar” Brovdi reported a fiber-optic drone destroyed helicopter Ka-52 “Alligator”. This is the first such case during the russian-Ukrainian war. Unlike regular FPV drones controlled via radio, a fiber-optic drone has lower speed, worse maneuverability and carries a reduced warhead. This is its payment for resistance to EW interference. The […]
Today the SBU made an official announcement that right at the basing site of Black Sea Fleet remnants in Novorossiysk port, an underwater drone hits submarine 636.3 Varshavyanka. This is the same submarine often mentioned as a carrier of Kalibr cruise missiles. It undoubtedly participated in shelling Ukrainian territory with these missiles. Considering that surface […]
We immediately inform you that we hesitated for some time about which category to assign this publication about the Druzhba pipeline strike. “News”? But it includes several events at once. “Analytics”? Yet there’s no analysis here, only well-known facts. For now, the article is placed in WTF (War Time Facts). The struck Druzhba pipeline remains […]
Fighters from the consolidated sniper unit “Pryvyd” (Ghost) updated the world record for effective sniper rifle range on August 14. The 4000m sniper record marks another milestone in marksmanship, 200 meters beyond the previous achievement. The previous record also belonged to a Ukrainian: SBU sniper Viacheslav Kovalskyi, who eliminated an enemy from 3,800 metres in […]
News about Operation Spiderweb has already flown around the world. All leading media reported the destruction of Russia’s strategic aviation, which they trained people to fear for decades. But as usual, the point here is not that relatively cheap drones managed to process extremely valuable aircraft worth at least hundreds of millions of dollars. The […]
Yesterday in Kursk Oblast, an Ukrainian FPV drone downs Mi-28 attack helicopter. A helicopter’s speed is actually comparable to certain drone types, which already makes an intercept feasible. During takeoff or landing — when the helicopter is slow and committed — the drone gains a clear maneuverability edge on top of that. And unlike a […]
A few hours ago, news broke that the Ukrainian Armed Forces destroyed A-50 over Krasnodar — another long-range radar detection aircraft. First came rumors, then confirmations appeared in enemy social networks. Our military held a pause, and a bit later it became clear what caused it. They waited for objective data on the fate of […]
Late in the evening on January 14, information emerged about the destroyed A-50 over Azov Sea — russia’s unique reconnaissance aircraft — and the damaging of an Il-22M flying command post. The Ukrainian Armed Forces confirmed the destruction of both russian aircraft. Deputy Chairman of the Verkhovna Rada Committee on Defense and Intelligence Yurii Mysiahin […]
A Security Service of Ukraine sniper, Vyacheslav Kovalsky, set a new sniper record on the front, hitting a target at 3,800 metres. The previous record belonged to a Canadian JTF-2 sniper who, in May 2017, eliminated an enemy in Iraq from a distance of 3,540 metres. Fighters from the SBU’s military counterintelligence unit established a […]
On July 2, in the Berdyansk direction, Ukrainian marines achieved a remarkable feat. A Ka-52 shot down with Javelin demonstrated the flexibility of the American anti-tank missile in a new role. The Russian Ka-52 “Alligator” attack helicopter flew at low altitude while trying to avoid air defenses. This marks the first time a Javelin has […]
