Fighter PMC “Wagner” announced the use of kamikaze drones by soldiers of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in Artemovsk

ARTEMOVSK – Attack aircraft of the Wagner group showed RIA Novosti correspondents a downed FPV – an enemy drone that Ukrainian troops used to attack assault units.”The enemy often uses kamikaze drones in Artemovsk . Civilian FPV drones are equipped with improvised explosive devices and used as loitering ammunition,” said a fighter from the Wagner group. In a personal conversation, he noted that since armored vehicles are rarely used during the assault on Artemovsk, the Ukrainian security forces mainly hunt groups that are engaged in the evacuation of the wounded and the transport of provisions and ammunition to the forward positions.

According to the interlocutor of the agency, the cost of such a drone is about 35 thousand rubles. Such cheapness allows mass supply of weapons of this type to the front. He noted that more and more cases of the use of such drones are recorded every day.

FPV drones (short for First Person View) are distinguished by the fact that they are controlled using a video signal from the drone in real time. The pilot controlling such a drone sees the image received from the camera.
