Russian fighter dodged a grenade dropped from a drone, and then pretended to be dead and neutralized the drone itself

The Russian military, continuing the traditions of their glorious ancestors, whom the legendary Russian commander Alexander Suvorov called “miracle heroes” for a reason, show amazing examples of courage and ingenuity in battles in Ukraine. This time, a video is circulating on the net, in which our soldier not only managed to avoid defeat from a grenade dropped from a Ukrainian dronebut destroyed it.


A Russian fighter was moving through a snow-covered forest when he was discovered by a Ukrainian drone, from which they filmed what was happening.

Having caught the soldier in the scope, the drone operator dropped a grenade on him. Apparently, the guy heard the sounds of the copter and, reacting with lightning speed, bounced away from the place where the projectile fell. However, he did not run away, but, as they say in such cases, "feigned dead."

An enemy drone flew closer to the soldier lying motionless in order to make sure of his defeat, or, as Ukrainians like to do, then show off close-up shots of a successful attack. But it was not there. When the drone flew close enough, the soldier instantly jumped up and literally “engaged in hand-to-hand combat” with the iron bird. The fighter, as they say, broke off the screws from the quadrocopter with his bare hands, after which the video was cut off. The drone has been disabled. One can only imagine the impressions of the ongoing Ukrainian operator, who lost the UAV in such an unexpected battle.

Russian users, commenting on the video, drew attention to the image of the tricolor on the soldier’s sleeve and the speaking chest chevron with a Russian bear on the bulletproof vest.



This is not the first time that composure and ingenuity save the lives of our soldiers during attacks from drones. Earlier, video footage appeared on the network in which a wounded Russian soldier in a trench dodged several hits from shells from an enemy copter, simply throwing two grenades aside. The fighter survived and continued to serve. Also, footage was shown of how our soldier changed the trajectory of a grenade with shots from a machine gun.

It is worth noting that every time these videos are uploaded to the network by Ukrainians, apparently, they themselves are very impressed with what is happening.

    this is becoming a signature trick!! Although during the Second World War, Soviet soldiers managed to return their "mallet" grenades to the Germans

      The Americans at that time had a Winchester Model 1897 shotgun, nicknamed the "Trench Broom"⁠⁠ for shooting the same German grenades. In my opinion, it is even easier to hit a drone from a shotgun than a flying grenade-"mallet".

          I was expecting something like this in response. That is, shooting down German grenades in the air is impressive, and shooting down a drone with a flight altitude of no more than 50 meters from a shotgun is suddenly forbidden and impossible. In fact, they hunt roe deer from a shotgun with a large shot, and the benches shoot down the plates.
          Have we brought our weapons factories to the point where they are not able to massively reproduce the Winchester Model 1897 shotgun or what?
          To make shrapnel or grape-shot grenades, I understand, it takes six months or a year, maybe more. But with shotguns, what's the delay? A couple of months and the sniper shotgun is ready.

            Currently, a lot of ammunition has been developed in calibers of 40-43 mm against drones! "Western" developments in the 40 mm grenade launcher (!) Caliber are impressive! Here are high-speed fragmentation grenades of air blast, and grenades-throwers of anti-drone nets, grenades-throwers of "connected", "shrapnel", There are also 12-gauge cartridges for shotguns, "representing" "connected" shrapnel or shrapnel-net,. !

              There are also 12-gauge shotgun shells "representing" bundled shrapnel or mesh shrapnel. !
              In our North, such a charge has long been tested on geese. Quite a work topic. Nine buckshots in the cartridge, three in a row, all on nylon threads tied into one common knot. The spread of buckshot is limited by the length of the threads, which ensures accuracy of fire. If such a bunch reaches the drone with at least one buckshot, then all the others will simply entangle the structure and, without even damaging it mechanically, with a high degree of probability will be able to disable it by entangling one of the screws. For a shotgun, with a cartridge in the usual (household) version, this is 50 (+15, at most +20) meters. It makes no sense to hit the geese higher. In principle, by increasing the weight of gunpowder and using a container, this structure can be raised up to 100 meters.
              The only restrictions in use are the height and the ability to take the correct lead in the direction of travel. So it would make some sense. winked

        And what, a buckshot charge will cause a detonation ???
        Or is it about changing the trajectory of the grenade?
        Still, something is not right.
        The grenade flies well .... 5 seconds, 40 meters.
        And from the trench you will see her only when she flies about 5 meters from you.

        In my opinion, shooting grenades is a Hollywood prodigy

          And when the stand-ups shoot at the skeet, doesn't it look fantastic? It is more difficult to hit a plate than a grenade, where the flight speed is a multiple higher.
          And does this change something in the possibilities of firing shots at drones?

        it is certainly simpler, only the fraction does not fly very far - 30-40m, maybe a little more. This is not enough. Drones probably fly higher.

Everything else, high-tech, to apply when it appears and will be tested. And shotguns can be used now and without delay, following the model of the American Winchester Model 1897 shotgun, during the First and Second World Wars.

      Because at the same time, its own connection is suppressed. And ground-based electronic warfare is easily covered from guns and mortars at the source of radiation. Especially near the front line, where it can still rebuild with a narrow beam from suppressing its communications. Ground-based electronic warfare makes little sense. But there are no air ones because of their complexity and low power.

    This is a smart soldier's story and should be applauded.

    But, frankly, you can’t count on defeating the drone in this way, because next time your enemy will not make such a mistake.

    Very strange video, I'll be glad if it's not fake, but it doesn't look believable. Those who know how to control such a drone know that you can’t lower it so low at a distance, you can break it and immediately lose connection, at a distance, a stable connection requires height. Did you cut out the most interesting? If you wrote on the card, the quality of the picture was also specially reduced?

    There is little joy here, because such successful outcomes are rare. And since they are repeated, it means that throwing grenades from copters has become commonplace.

    For some reason, no one in the discussions had a logical question: Why did the drone go down so low? Would you like to check your pulse?

    A savvy warrior, on the other hand, if you want to live, you won’t do that. Fortunately, not on a ship, such a move will not work there.

    It's not clear to me in the video - why did the copter drop so low?

    An enemy drone flew closer to the soldier lying motionless in order to make sure of his defeat, or, as Ukrainians like to do, then show off close-up shots of a successful attack. But it was not there. When the drone flew close enough, the soldier instantly jumped up and literally “engaged in hand-to-hand combat” with the iron bird. The fighter, as they say, broke off the screws from the quadrocopter with his bare hands, after which the video was cut off. The drone has been disabled. One can only imagine the impressions of the ongoing Ukrainian operator, who lost the UAV in such an unexpected battle.

    you can’t fool Russian ingenuity .... good

    On lostarmore they wrote that friends picked up the copter.
    What happened to the fighter is unclear.

    What's this? In World War I, a soldier put a noose on a plane and tied it to a tree. The pure truth about this was written by Yaroslav Gashek. And another had his head blown off, but he pulled out a pistol from his holster, took aim and shot down the plane. There were also heroes, but Austrian ones.

    There is no pride. Even sad and outrageous from the need for such ingenuity. Well, the Armed Forces of Ukraine will stop reducing drones or, for example, flying in pairs, one scares and the other is pretending to hit, so what?
    And where is at least a modern electronic warfare weapon or some kind of pocket air defense for drones? Or the country that created Robot Fedor, who rides a UAZ and shoots a pistol and flies into space ... (by the way, why doesn’t he participate in the war? Fedor is a fake or something?), so why does our technical equipment force soldiers to pretend to be dead - this is a reason for pride? When a person squirms, and a high-tech weapon is thrown at him, this should not cause pride, but great indignation. Where are our developers, where is our industry, where are the scientists, where is the whole development of our country???

    If this video is not staged, but real, then the fighter, of course, is a handsome man, no doubt about it.
