A Ukrainian sniper shot down a drone with a rifle
A Ukrainian military man with the call sign “Melky” managed to shoot down a Russian drone that overcame REB defenses.
A sniper of the “Materik” battalion destroyed a Russian reconnaissance drone with a .308 caliber rifle.
The video of the precise hit was published on social networks by the “Kharkov” operational-tactical group.
Judging by the published footage, the Ukrainian sniper managed to fire only a few shots to shoot down the Russian drone.
The enemy drone was carrying out reconnaissance or coordinating actions of the Russian army.
After a precision hit, one of the drone’s propellers flew off, and the device crashed to the ground and lost the ability to continue flying.
The Ukrainian military said that fighting drones using electronic warfare equipment with anti-drone guns is not always effective.
Recently, Russian operators have been constantly adapting by changing the control frequency.
Earlier, it was reported that one of the snipers of the AFU for one minute made 5 accurate hits on the enemy.
Such excellent results were shown during the battle by a sniper of the 56th separate motorized rifle brigade of the Ukrainian army.
