Will break the offensive of the Russian Federation: in Ukraine created cartridges "peas" for knocking down drones (video)
A new development that will help to fight the drones of the Russian Federation was presented on the Brave1 platform, said the Forbes media. The cartridges will come in handy when there are a large number of UAVs and small assault groups of the enemy. Meanwhile, antironous ammunition is suitable for conventional assault rifles of the Armed Forces, and this can "play a key role in the stop of the last offensive of Russia," the media wrote.
Forbes explained that 76 mm charges are suitable for NATO rifles, including for modular CZ Bren module rifles and M4 automatic rifles. They can be knocked down both FPV-therots and Mavic. The article states that Russians use drones of different types, preparing for attacks in the face of artillery deficiency. The tactics of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation - some drones track Ukrainian positions, others - strike, and then go forward the assault group and progress.
The Armed Forces fighters have different types of UAV protection: both remedies and air defense. But there are so many Russian drones that there is not enough antitrone to be available, the media said. When every military has a weapon against the drones of the Russian Federation, it does not need to wear other devices and spend time switching. "Ukraine uses rifle shells against drones, disrupting the Russian offensive. These new rounds come at a critical time.
It is expected that they will be taken directly to the front," - summed up Forbes. The article does not indicate when new antitrone cartridges appear on the front and whether they will be enough. The media refers to the data of the portal "Military", which told about a new weapon of the Armed Forces. It turned out that the cartridges were already used and due to certain features were called "peas". During the shot, the cartridge flies at a speed of up to 800 m/s and in flight breaks into 4-5 balls.
The balls find themselves in space around the Russian drone and when there are many, they knock down the device. The article states that it is necessary to shoot several times in a row for the lesion to appear to appear "cloud of ribbon". It is emphasized that the "cloud" is needed, because 4-5 balls are too small to damage the enemy UAV. The technical characteristics of the cartridge of the caliber 5.
56 mm "peas": according to the plan of Ukraine, cartridges are codified by the Ministry of Defense and now they should be made in large numbers. Each fighter is expected to have a store of antironous rounds. When Russian UAV appears, he will be able to quickly replace the store and knock down the device, the media wrote. It should be noted that in the fall of 2024, Focus wrote about another new weapon of the Armed Forces to fight against drones of the Russian Federation.
