Russian Forces Counter Ukrainian Drones

Russian military units have established networks of small anti-aircraft units and mobile fire groups to rapidly destroy Ukrainian drones. These units use various weapons, including heavy machine guns, twin machine guns PKT, automatics, and RPKs, to target drones flying at low altitudes or in columns. Coordination between positions is swift, with data transmitted via radio to neighboring posts. The units have successfully destroyed Ukrainian drones, including 'Hornet' models, and have reported destroying up to five Ukrainian fighters. Russian drone pilots are also playing an increasingly important role, using modern FPV anti-drone drones to take out Ukrainian aircraft and protect ground troops.
