Ukraine is looking for ways to improve the effectiveness of destroying Iranian kamikaze drones Shahed-136. Ukrainian volunteers are trying to develop their own solution.

Here's What We Know

Roman Kirilyuk, a software developer, published a short video on Twitter, which shows how a hexacopter (a drone with six motors) has a mini-machine gun attached. For 1000 likes the author promises to publish a video of the drone. By the way, the publication has already gathered more than 20,000 likes.

The system is expected to be more effective against Iran's Shahed-136 suicide drones, destroyed more than 200 since Sept. 13. How effective an unmanned aerial vehicle with a machine gun will be, we will find out very soon.
