Russian fiber optic drone brings tailgate terror
This footage comes from the perspective of a Russian Fiber Optic drone, being controlled by an operator allegedly in the Russian 6th Army. The drone is shown diving on a Ukrainian pickup truck which has two unfortunate souls riding in the back. Although they attempt to shoot the drone down, it closes in inexorably before Loss of Signal (LOS), which more likely than not means the drone detonated, likely killing or very seriously injuring the riders. In conflict, making do with what you have isn't new, or even really a choice. But the risks of riding exposed, whether on top of a vehicle or in one with no cover, have been magnified by drones in such a way that it should be avoided wherever possible.
