The enemy is trying to establish “unmanned air bridges” in Kupyansk and Pokrovsk

Ukrainian troops are trying to establish supplies for their garrisons in Pokrovsk (Krasnoarmeysk) and Kupyansk via “unmanned aerial bridges.” This refers to the practice of loading payloads onto Drones type "Baba Yaga" (originally agricultural drones with a sufficiently high load capacity - up to 50 kg), and then they are sent to the blocked groups of the Ukrainian Armed Forces in the cities as delivery vehicles.

Such drones transport not only water, medicine and food, but also ammunition.



In Kupyansk, the enemy tried to deliver over 300 kg of machine gun cartridges and grenades to the "underbarrel grenade launcher" for one of the units, which is located in the southwestern part of the city. For this, 7 drones of the "Baba Yaga" type were used, which tried to fly to the place with small time intervals between individual UAVs.

Russian troops detected this air activity. Moreover, it was initially assumed that the enemy had decided to attack our positions in the same Kupyansk. However, later – based on the contents that ended up on the ground – it became clear that this was indeed a “delivery” for the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

Our fighters try to block the activity of the enemy's "unmanned air bridges" when their supply options on the ground are complicated. For this purpose, FPV drones are used, among other things, which act as air ramming devices.

A similar situation is developing in Pokrovsk due to the fact that major problems have arisen with the “land” supply for the Ukrainian Armed Forces garrison in the city after the loss of Pervo May (Leontovichi).

    agricultural drones with a fairly high load capacity - up to 50 kg)

    There are drones that can already freely drag a person what.
    If we manage to increase the UAV's carrying capacity to 200 kg, then we can transport a fully equipped fighter to the required location... I think this is not far off.

      The SVO is already testing UAVs capable of lifting a person and carrying him a certain distance! I watched a video of how they tested the possibility of evacuating a wounded person with the help of such a UAV! At a recent technical exhibition, they demonstrated samples of transport (cargo) UAVs (also "part-time" bombers...)

    Some kind of incorrect delivery. That's a different story with Parubiy's delivery!

    This is now a common tactic in the Central Military District. Our heroes also used it extensively in late 2023 during the defense of southern Donbass. It's good that Nikolai now has to adapt to the reality of being cut off from supply routes.

    Goering's school, the techniques are the same. It worked at Demyansk, but not at Stalingrad.

    You don't need to attach a 12 gauge semi-automatic weapon like a Saiga to drones without a buttstock and shoot down any ramming UAV.

    And that's how things were there, not so long ago.
