In Odesa, an interceptor drone shot down a "Shahed" for the first time: a video of the attack moment appeared

In Odesa, interceptor drones have been put on combat duty to protect the city from Russian loitering munitions like "Shahed".

This was reported by Militarnyi.

They can operate at high speeds with great precision, allowing them to effectively counter Russian attacks.

One of the moments these drones were used was captured on video, taken by residents of Odesa during another attack.

Before the interceptor drone was used, the military attempted to shoot down the "Shahed" using machine guns.

However, due to the difficulty of hitting a high-speed target, these attempts were in vain.

The use of interceptor drones can significantly strengthen the defense of Ukrainian cities and reduce the number of casualties and destruction caused by Russian kamikaze drone attacks.

Similar drones can accelerate from zero to a hundred kilometers per hour in less than a second.

Their fragmentation-explosive warhead is specially optimized to hit UAVs and has an effective radius of several meters if a direct hit on the enemy drone is not possible.
