Ruscist from mobile fire group shows off medals and "Pioneer" compass amid reports of Russian air defences shooting down their own helicopters: "We do it all by ear; there’s no other way".. VIDEO

A video published online shows a Russian soldier from a mobile fire group describing Russian military helicopter operations during efforts to repel a Ukrainian drone attack on Ust-Luga port in the Leningrad region.

According to Censor.NET, Telegram channels close to the Russian Aerospace Forces previously claimed that Russian air defences had allegedly shot down at least three of their own helicopters during the attack.

"We do it all by ear; there’s no other way," the ruscist explained on camera while describing how his mobile fire group operates.

The occupier also took the opportunity to show off his medals and display a compass he called a "Pioneer" compass.

It seems Russian air defence has not only modern counter-drone equipment in its arsenal, but also time-tested methods — its own hearing and a "Pioneer" compass.
