πŸ”₯Chasiv Yar. Surroundings - the 24th Brigade staged a "choreography" with the occupants with FPV drones.

Soldiers of the Battalion of Unmanned Aerial Systems "RAROG" 24 OMBr named after King Danylo chased one Russian with a drone on the outskirts of Chasovoy Yar.

The invader tried to "loop" around the battered armor, but his end was obvious.

I know this is a stupid question but I am a stupid person and so it falls to me to ask. What happened at the end? It looks like the drone slams into the guy. Does the drone have remotely detonated explosives or does the impact itself kill him?

See the metal wires that frame the shot?

Those touch together and whatever is around it goes boom.

Okay, got it. Thanks so much for enlightening me.

You aren't stupid for asking a question. Asking questions is why smart people know things.

[–] misterdoctor@lemmy.world 7 points 2 weeks ago

Thank you πŸ™

There are contact trigger wires that protrude from the front of the drone.

[–] misterdoctor@lemmy.world 4 points 2 weeks ago

Ahh okay, that image helps. Thank you for educating me!

Impact would not have killed, but whatever small amount of explosive it was carrying would.

Did that guy have a heart attack?? XD

It doesn't look like that done is large enough to have a chamber to fire something... And if it did why would they crash it XD

Maybe it didn’t explode (hence the smoke), and the guy just plays dead?
