The Ukrainian servicemen might be armed with Bayraktar Mini drones.

This was reported by the Oryx website based on an analysis of shots featuring the results of the work of the Defense Forces of Ukraine, which were shared online.

This regards the frames featuring the defeat of the positions of the Russian military by Ukrainian artillery. The photo shows the elements of the UAV operator’s interface, which has elements identical to the Bayraktar Mini.

The image quality provided by the camera of this UAV can be assessed from the video, which was probably taken by the same device. The drone was following the escape of a Russian soldier who ran towards the positions of the Russian Armed Forces and thus uncovered them.

Artillery was able to destroy the Russian BMP-2, the process of which was recorded by the drone.

Bayraktar Mini has small dimensions (1.2 by 1.6 meters) and weighs 3.5 kg. The drone is launched manually.

The newest of its models, which, apparently, was delivered to Ukraine, has a communication range of 15 kilometers, can supply approximately 80 minutes of autonomous flight, and a maximum altitude of about 1,200 meters.
