FPV Drone Flies Into the Commander's Hatch (Prequel to a Another Incident)

An FPV drone flies into a commander's hatch, disabling the tank. This is a prequel to another video where two drones hit an abandoned tank.

Eyes on Ukraine sent me an email--since I started putting an ad for them on some videos, they have had over $2, 000 in new donations. So thank you very much, everybody.

Now that's putting warheads on foreheads

The fact a Russian taker has to open the hatch to use his radio ... is amazing by itself.

Clearly that tank commander had something on his mind.

Don't forget the tank was moving, which makes it an even more impressive shot

[mavigogun]

The cost-to-cost ratio is fantastic! Imagine having a trained crew, tank, and all their munitions taken out by a few hundred dollars of drones! Keep the donations flowing, folks- they are making a difference!

These pilots are going to become more and more skilled since the same operator can keep getting new drones. A standard soldier can't respawn and learn from his death.

And to give extreme credit to them, it was a moving tank at that!

Prequels, sequels and the right now.
We love *all news* from our favourite war time reporting dinosaur! 👍

Absolutely loved that 'head shot'!!!

These FPV drones are elegant, simple, and plain genius.
What I like about these over switchblades is they can easily be adapted in the field with different types of munitions, and are recoverable if the attack is called off. 10 years ago these wouldn't be so practical, but now it makes all the sense in the world.
I can't help but wonder how efective a firearm mounted to these would be. My personal favorite weapon would be something like the FN FivesevenN 5.7x28 pistol, or perhaps a redesigned semi-auto P-90. Perhaps an MP7. You'd be looking for something that's lightweight, has low recoil, with some range, and just enough punch. A flying American 180 is also tempting.
Piloting this would feel like you hacked a CoD server. You'd basically be extremely difficult to see, stupid fast, flying red dot sight, with a tiny hitbox.
They might be easily shot down during the day, but imagine how effective they'd be at night with the right optics. If you can hear their buzz, it's already too late.
Or a dozen of these swarming an enemy platoon during the daytime while engaged with friendly ground forces. If engineered correctly, I think they could chew up ground forces like piranha solution. Especially at night or used in numbers ranging from a few to a dozen. One of the bonuses to this is you can forgo many of the safety measures you normally would with ground forces, such as avoiding cross/friendly fire, or "bum rushing" the enemy all at once. Even if one does occasionally get knocked out, it's only a drone. If recovered it may still be repairable or at least provide spare parts.

I've noticed that out of adversity comes success. When Such... was confronted with having to add 10 seconds to the front of some of his videos, he did so by adding first one site now several worthwhile sites that contribute to the war effort. I've seen now that others are making similar recommendations in the comments section. It was a good turn all around. Thanks.

"Hey comrades, did you ever get a funny feeling you were being followed?"

[Im-just-Stardust]

In slow motion you can see a head popping out of the hatch lol I think the drone hit him right on the head.

Seems like a great organization to donate to. Can't imagine more bang for the buck than that.

Wow! What a hit! Thanks Suchomimus for sharing this! Great job Ukraine 🇺🇦

[srf]

Every time I hear him say "Eastern front" I picture Col. Hogan and Sgt. Schultz.

[sooz]

Welp... don't think an Ibuprofen is gonna help that headache... Thank you Suchomimus, cool video!!

Now that's an accurate hit. Thanks for posting.

Playing the radio and disturbing the peace attracts birds of prey.
