First-person view drones have become increasingly popular in modern warfare. These drones provide real-time video feeds and can be equipped with various sensors, cameras, and payloads, allowing operators to gain situational awareness and conduct precision strikes.
An FPV drone operated by Russian Battlegroup Dnepr paratroopers shot down a Ukrainian Baba Yaga heavy hexacopter bomber drone in an air battle over the Kherson region, the Russian Defense Ministry said.
"After launching an FPV drone from the left bank of the Dnepr River to destroy the personnel and equipment of the Ukrainian Army on the right bank, the operator of a Russian drone spotted a Ukrainian attack hexacopter of the Baba Yaga type in the air, which was flying in the direction of our positions to drop shells.
