The Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) released yet another brutal FPV kamikaze drone montage in which multiple Russian vehicles were struck and destroyed and many casualties were inflicted. The speed and agility of these FPV racing drones modified into loiter munitions makes them hard to detect and almost impossible to escape. They have also been shown to carry formidable HEAT rounds, a potent payload for any target.

Although yet to be seen, the psychological effects on the survivors of this drone war will be significant. Similar to how GWOT combat veterans will panic when seeing a harmless cardboard box near the road they are driving on... the vets of the Ukrainian war will likely bug out anytime they catch a bird flying out of the corner of their eye.
