The military expert Petro Chernik told about the armament of the armament of the defense forces of the enemy. Currently, the lesions of the hostile drones "Shahaned" are not mainly anti -aircraft missiles, but by means of become artillery and specialized antitumerate complexes. Australian Slinger's Australian Anti-Willow modules, consisting of 30mm M230LF gun and 7. 62 mm MAG58 machine gun, are among the most effective means. "The system is equipped with thermal imaging and night sights.
The range of detection of air goals of the optical-electronic system is 12 km using a daytime channel, and 13. 7 km using a night channel," Chernik explained. According to the expert, another important system of counteraction is the British Low range MSI-DS Terrahawk Paladin. It is equipped with a remote 30mm MK44 Busmaster II gun with a double power system for the use of different types of ammunition, including shells with a programmable undermining.
Terrahawk allows you to destroy targets up to 2 km and has a RLS with a possibility of circular observation. Meanwhile, the Russians have begun to use cheap prisoners in recent weeks without combat part to identify the positions of Ukrainian air defense and depletion of anti-aircraft missile systems (SDRs). Russia expects that Ukraine will use expensive missiles, such as Patriot SCR to destroy these drones.
However, the Ukrainian military adapted their tactics, learning to knock down "Shahhada" and drones-bastards with machine guns and small arms. The Ukrainian forces also actively use Stinger MSC, the production of which has been restored in the United States. Chernik notes that at the moment, there have been cases where the Chad's 50 attacking drones have been destroyed, which indicates the achievement of the lesion rate at 90-98%.
