That is a new capability. And a valuable one at that.
How are they sure this is destroyed?
You can't know for sure given only this footage. But drones don't exactly have great armor. So detonating something so close makes a kill very likely.
It rammed the drone and the signal was lost. At minimum this would screw up the observation drone, even if the attacking drone wasn't equipped with an explosive charge.
There is no visible contact in the video and the description says "remotely detonated". Don't get me wrong, I hope they down all of them. I was just wondering.
That's a fair point.
Yeah, there's no proof this actually took the drone out.
A/A drones, love to see one with some stingers missiles on it in the future.
Anyone else having trouble viewing?
