Fighters from the UAV company tasked with countering enemy UAV positions, part of the Strike Groups Company (RUG) in the National Guard of Ukraine’s Khartiia 2nd Corps, have released a summary infographic and footage of strikes on enemy targets in August. The UAV company is commanded by Yurii Butusov.
Ukrainian fighters dealt devastating blows to Russian logistics, vehicles, communications equipment and aerial targets, Censor.NET reports.
In the video, the unit shows FPV drones hitting moving vehicles, motorcycles, infantry positions, dugouts, shelters and enemy drones in mid-air.
According to the published figures, the unit’s fighters hit and destroyed the following in August:
