Forbes: Ukraine wipes out two Russian drone operators with HIMARS, borrowing US Afghan tactics
Ukrainian intelligence forces executed a precision strike against a Russian drone team in Zaporizhzhia Oblast, employing multiple military assets, including HIMARS, surveillance drones, and attack drones, Forbes reports.
“It might seem like overkill, but there’s a reason Ukraine allocated a surveillance drone, HIMARS, and attack drones to take out a two-man Russian drone team,” reports Forbes war correspondent David Axe.
The operation began when a Ukrainian Shark surveillance drone spotted a civilian truck carrying an Orlan drone team. The Orlan, a key Russian reconnaissance tool, plays a crucial role in frontline intelligence gathering.
