The Ukrainian Defence Forces have used cheap drones to strike a very rare Russian Terminator tank support vehicle. The video was published by the Security Service of Ukraine.
Here's What We Know
The footage shows the Terminator operating with 30mm cannons, after which the combat vehicle is attacked by a drone. FPV drone hit the aft part. The Russian military tried to escape, but another drone was also able to strike.
After the second hit, the crew of the combat vehicle fled. The "Terminator" was immobilised but not destroyed. The Russians decided to evacuate the equipment from the battlefield with the help of a T-80 tank. However, the tank also fell into the crosshairs of FPV drones, which made several strikes.
The Russian armoured vehicles were then attacked with mortars. Smoke can be seen on the video, but the extent of damage to the T-80 tank and the Terminator support vehicle is difficult to assess.
By the way, according to Oryx, the Ukrainian Armed Forces destroyed only one Russian Terminator. As for tanks, things are better here. Since 24 February 2022, Russia has lost over 600 T-80s in various modifications.
