Our STING interceptors have already destroyed more than 200 targets 🐝💥🚀
In just two months of work, the STING interceptor drone has shot down 205 targets: 78 Shaheds and 127 Gerbers.
Thanks to the military for their work! Our Night Hornets unit also joined in shooting down enemy drones. Thanks to the donors for their trust.
The number of shot-down drones grows every day, so it may have already increased while we were writing this post.
It’s a Geran-2 attack UAV, which is a copy of the Iranian Shahed UAV.
Ah neat! So it’s a drone firing a drone to intercept a drone.
Edit: No, that’s a Russian craft.
I realize what you were asking about now. The first thing that’s visible is just black smoke from the explosion of the STING interceptor drone.
There’s pretty clearly 2 pyrotechnic events here. if you’re viewing it on a good enough screen.
Given camera movement, I suppose the “plane” could just be a cloud of smoke as well, that’s true. Like, maybe it started a rocket stage? Aren’t Shaheds slow and dumb, though? I don’t know why it’d need that.
I cropped and stabilized the video which makes it harder to tell that the camera is moving, not the smoke of the first explosion. Here’s the original video.
