[Combat] Russian reconnaissance UAV is intercepted by a reusable "Queen Hornet" FPV drone.

Destruction without loss of means of destruction! This is not a rocket, this is the clear work of Posipak! 😈😈😈

Any information on how this works? I just see the interceptor fly above the other drone, then sparks, and the other drone is falling out of the sky. Is the interceptor carrying something underneath?

They haven't shared any photos of the drone in this configuration yet. I assume it carries a DIY directional fragmentary warhead underneath.

That sounds probable, but I still wonder how they're firing it without trouble from the recoil, some kind of recoil-less rifle design perhaps? I remember some people were speculating about that when the "shotgun-drone" video were circulating.

It gets quite a jolt in the video, so maybe it's just the gyros and weight of the drone. These "Queens" are larger than normal FPV drones.

Awesome work!! Is there an instance for combat videos on Lemmy? I'd love to se more.
