Somewhere in these endless fields, the legendary tank was born at the beginning of the last century. A light vehicle with strong springs and a heavy Maxim machine gun, it became a formidable weapon in several armies at once for several decades.
With lightning speed they penetrated the enemy’s rear and flanks, dealt unexpected blows and eluded pursuit.
And here we go again. Soldiers of the Novorossiysk large mountain unit of the Dnieper Airborne Group have converted a vehicle based on a buggy, but with two machine guns. It is again ruling the fields in the Orekhovsky direction. But the barrels of the machine guns are pointed at the sky.
They eagerly search for enemy drones.
“The installation is a frame for mounting two 7.62 mm PKT machine guns with a night sight installed,” the Russian Defense Ministry staff said.
Today, these crews perform combat duties in air defence and in covering formation units during active combat operations, as well as attack enemy personnel.
During the entire period of the special military operation, the air defense crews of the Crimean paratroopers did not detect even a dozen enemy drones of various types.
