FPV Drones Take Down Russian Assault Group in Donetsk’s Toretsk Sector

Soldiers of the 12th Special Forces Brigade “Azov” of the National Guard of Ukraine destroyed an enemy assault group using FPV drones.

The corresponding video was released by the brigade’s press service.

It is noted that the attempted assault took place in the Toretsk sector in the Donetsk region.

The Russian assault group tried to approach the Ukrainian positions using a Desertcross 1000-3 all-terrain vehicle, a passenger car, an armored personnel carrier and a Kamaz-Patrol 6×6 armored vehicle.

While driving, an all-terrain vehicle and an infantry fighting vehicle hit mines, and a passenger car was hit by an FPV drone.

Subsequently, a rare Kamaz-Patrol 6×6 armored vehicle entered the field and was disabled by drones that damaged its wheels.

After that, the armored vehicle began to move uncontrollably in circles around the field.

After it stopped, a landing party disembarked, trying to gain a foothold in the nearest building, but was destroyed by drone strikes with drops.

“The lack of armored vehicles forces the invaders to attack anything with wheels—even two-wheeled vehicles. This tactic significantly increases the likelihood of their elimination,” the brigade noted.

Azov’s combat missions

Previously, on December 1, it was reported that the Azov Brigade had received Croatian RAK-SA-12 rocket launchers, which it uses near New York.

The Croatian lightweight rocket launcher has already proven to be a serious weapon for repelling waves of enemy attacks and supporting infantry.

To transport the RAK, it is enough to have a pickup truck. Its small size provides good camouflage.

The crew receives the coordinates, works for a few minutes and the position “disappears” again, and 128mm shells are fired at the enemy.
