The border guards reported this on the detachment page on the social network Facebook. In the above river crossing, a fugas projectile dropped from the heavy shock drone "Vampire" was hit. The result was the destruction of the crossing and reducing the logistics capabilities of the Russians. The video can see a temporary crossing for vehicles thrown over a small river. The lesion of the projectile released is a fairly large explosion.
The framework of thermal imaging indicates that events occur at night when such large UAVs usually work. We will remind, Vampire drones (Vampire ") developed and produced by the Ukrainian company SkyFall, their cost is estimated at $ 10,000. Unmanned tanks or other heavy equipment can be destroyed. Vampire is a large enough hexacopter that lifts a payload of weighing up to 15 kg (other sources indicate 20 kg) to a height of up to 400 m.
Thanks to this he can throw away different types of ammunition on the enemy: thermobaric, cumulative and fragmental Types of goals. Vampire have a 320 x 240 thermal imager to work at night. It allows you to see the goals in the dark at a distance of about 120 meters. It is difficult to see the drone in the dark. The drones lined can sometimes turn due to its high strength. In November 2023, the Armed Forces showed the work of Vampire drones under Bakhmut.
In hostilities, the drone destroys the warehouses, live power and cars of the invaders. Our pilots are used mainly at night to be less noticeable. And in the afternoon - they test it with a new explosive. The drone works autonomously - the operators indicate the coordinates, the drone flies to the target, drops the ammunition, then returns on its own.
Vampire bombard drones cause panic from Russian invaders-they received the nickname "Baba Yaga", which is also called any heavy night copters of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. The Russian military is scared of work at night and the great fire capacity of these drones. The Baba Yaga crew consists of three fighters, which usually work together for a long time, and, unlike Dronov-Kamikadze Dronov pilots, they are very protected by their working machine.
