"Games needed": The Armed Forces Operator showed how the drones of Kamikadze use in the war (video)

On the front there is a deadly game in "Cats", and soldiers need to make a lot of efforts to destroy the enemy without losing their equipment. Tiny and inexpensive drones with a first person (FPV) play an increasingly important role in the Russian-Ukrainian war. This is stated in Reuters, published on Monday, August 1. The Ukrainian military uses different types of drones during the counter -offensive. There are also large drones that can fly hundreds of kilometers.

And other UAVs play the role of scouts, photograph the terrain. Another drone is designed to drop the ammunition enemy. But the central role remains with FPV-Drons, which are designed to crash directly into the target on the battlefield. Such unmanned aerial vehicles are managed by the operator with the help of joystick and headsets of virtual reality. Media journalists spoke with one such UAV operator with the call sign "Joker", which now performs combat missions in the Zaporozhye region.

"Every time I put on glasses and take a joystick, I think about how my mother told me that these video games would not benefit me," the military with the correspondents shared. He also spoke about how the Armed Forces work with drones during a counter -offensive in the southern direction of the front. According to the fighter, there is now a kind of play in the "Cats", and Ukrainian UAV operators need to make every effort to damage the enemy's equipment, but not lose their drones.

To do this, fighters have to change their positions frequently. Failure to do so, the opponent of the drone signal and begins to suppress the drone with a system of EWS. In addition, the FPV-aroma operator cannot break away from its equipment for a second, since the flight of these drones needs to be monitored. The fact is that, unlike other drones that can be launched and tracked, FPV drones are never hanging in the air; They always fly quickly and look forward.

Their cameras are not even pointing down. "The drone can attack at speed, from a height, in different ways - each pilot controls a drone in its style - but it always attacks at speed," - explained the drone operator. We will remind, in Ukraine created a unique UAV BACKFIRE. The drone, which in seven months and could not knock down the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, is collected from Ukrainian and European details.
