It is assumed that the enemy lost control of the Baba Yaga during the mission and the drone became tangled in a tree.
“The sappers then removed the device, took out the ammunition and took it for restoration and modernization,” RIA Novosti quoted the department as saying.
Russian specialists increased the payload capacity of the captured drone and also modernized other systems.
The captains of the repair battalion have already restored dozens of heavy unmanned aerial vehicles of the Armed Forces of Ukraine that were transferred for combat use, the Ministry of Defense added.
Earlier, it was reported about an unusual aerial combat between drones. In the air, the operator of a Russian FPV drone saw a Ukrainian Baba Yaga attack hexacopter flying in the direction of our mine-launching positions. The operator decided to attack the enemy hexacopter. “Baba Yaga” exploded and fell without causing any harm to our servicemen.
