"The suggestion of making use of nails on a drone may be a possibility for air-to-air combat ... This procedure, though unusual, deserves some interest, as it seems an effective method to counteract foe drones," the record read. Kyiv Post sought review from a Ukrainian FPV drone operator, that rejected the technique as "uncertain," noting that fastening nails includes unneeded body weight to the UAV, giving little bit of useful worth.

These drones storm down liquified metal, making use of a pyrotechnic make-up called thermite, on their targets. This brand-new weapon was built through a Ukrainian startup that produces explosive units, consisting of thermite costs, made for drone work.
