- The Ukrainian drone crews kill Russian soldiers in different ways, and say different things as they do so.

In the darkness of a summer night, the remote operators of the Vampire hexacopters follow a precise set of instructions before dropping their bombs on the enemy’s infantrymen. Yet when the kamikaze FPV drone teams kill, there is a heated rush of words as they send their explosives-packed craft hurtling down onto the Russian forces.
“Yes, yes, yes! Over here, over here! Yes, yes, yes! Let’s go, yes!” urges a co-pilot, as his pilot finds the target. The final second of the Russian’s life - he had stood up in his foxhole, hearing the drone, and had grabbed his rifle - is captured in a grainy transmission before the video abruptly fizzles out. Mission complete.

Essentially, we are moving towards robot wars.
Yes but before that it’ll be robot vs humans first. It’ll be a wealthy country using them against a country nowhere near the capabilities as the wealthy one
This.
But those robots will be trying to kill their human operators.
@@martijnnvermeulen7515 nah that's only in Hollywood
Absolutely.
The problem is, you can print these robots in your basement. The munitions they've used in this war before international support were also 3D printed. Everything was made through modern tech and raw materials...
Many YT channels exist that showcase drones that are converted (for science) in the USA to be weaponized using over the shelf components... ruclips.net/video/0rliFQ0qyAM-/видео.html robodog armed with sub machine gun shooting at children targets maybe?
When this Ukraine invasion 'ends' (which does not look like there is any end in sight anytime soon) - it will have created a whole new era of warfare, which can take place anywhere at any time, and no vehicle, no building or 'safe space' is safe - robots can be any size in the near future. So good luck with a any digital device being 'safe.'
One must be ready for asymetrical warfare - which there is no actual direction of attack. Tanks, anti-drone devices, tunnels - all defeated in time with robots.
Let the robots evolve into a perfect killing device ... give them a couple 'winks' of ai... and the robots start building themselves. Then what?
They have thermal imagine ist difficult to hide. I think this is the worst war for infantrymen.
In thefuture .everything underground
Would be impossible to move out in the open in day or night
Well, that last minute was uncomfortable.
You have to watch that South Park episode with all the drones, you'll find it if you google it, it basically summarizes what that last minute was about but it's really funny.
The number of drones and their types is amazing. This war is a precursor.
Bayraktars
FPV drones
Lancets
Ground based drones
Drones directing artillery
Recon drones
Drones used to evacuate people
Drones with machine guns yes that has happened alot recently.
Supply drones.
Drones are becoming the new AKs and M16s of our Generation. Not even a special forces soldier can be useful on their own without drones and it's easy to kill them now.
It's about of mass production, innovation and willpower.
In Alexander's last words "To The Strongest".
Watch. Darwin’s War Inside the secret bunker of Ukraine’s ace FPV drone pilot here on RUclips and Inside Ukraine’s deadly drone war Times Reports videos from a few days ago.
The main problem with any small drone is they don't have enough battery and power to resist make strong enough signals to resist jamming. You can only change patterns to resist with lower power of a drone. Russian jamming seems to have surpassed our own jamming capabilities in the U.S military because even western missiles Russia has been able to jam.
This show isn't very well with reality. Sure military drones can be better but you have to have many and hide in bunkers or a good hiding spot to fly.
Also not all drones are dji. They use some other brands that has AI target tracking to keep an eye on targets and follow them. One of the brands is mentioned in the videos above.
drones with MGs are not fielded bud that's just a myth. Ineffective and very limited ammo.
And do you know what can defeat all those drones EMP
@@cartrellsplunge1525 facts but oversaturated EMPs
not the strongest but the most adaptable
2 out of 16 survived. That’s some serious casualties.

VITÓRIA A UCRÂNIA 🇺🇦🤝🇺🇲 força e honra 🙌
Drone warfare is scary and imagine swarm with this small drone danmm
Kinda scary that the FPV pilot was using the same controller I use for my hobby drones.
Fantastic report. The Ukrainians are very brave and critical to the future of Europe.
As if Russia doesn't have drones? They have far more and are deadlier at using them. There is no future for Ukraine, they are resorting to letting prisoners out because they ran out of men. 🤣🤣
@@TheRealBillBob Surely, you're aware the Russian invaders emptied their own prisons in search of fresh rubes for their "meat-wave" assault strategy well over a year ago, right? I'm sure you're aware. You're clearly online, so you must know this already.
So, that begs the questions: Are you a big fan of authoritarianism or something? ...Murder? Sexual violence? ...Crimes against humanity, perhaps?
Then what is it, exactly? What is your angle here?
...What the @#*$ are you on about?
@@TheRealBillBob You are arguing with yourself m0r0n. Unless you just another malfunctioning Russian bot.
@@TheRealBillBob Russian bot
@@chrischarlescook he has a different perspective so he is a Russian bot.
Arnold is smiling to himself.
Very interesting plot. This is extremely important to highlight. Thank you for your work.
*Being chased down by one of these Drones has to be one of the most TERRIFYING experiences humans have ever faced. It's like a Hollywood B Horror Movie come to life... Even if you survive it, the PTSD you're left with will haunt you for the rest of your life. You'll never see another drone or worse hear the sound they make without hitting the deck or just pissing and/or shitting yourself*
Yes this is a war like no man has really ever seen gotta be terrifying for both sides!
@@vincegedeon6583 Maybe look at the old german bombs that had a siren sound when falling from air planes. Equally as horrifying
That is the stupidest question I have ever heard. Turn drone operations over to AI. You are obviously confusing AI with magic.
By AI then mean object recognition. So they can order the drone forward and it automatically scans for soldiers localy on its own processor instead of needing a human to guide the last few seconds of attack. Making jamming these drones far more dificult.
@@TomasApolonia Most people say "AI" to mean "Neural Networks", not "Computer Vision". Visual guidance dates back to WW II when they tried training pigeons to guide bombs. It is an excellent idea and is commonly used in manufacturing. It does bypass the effect of jamming.
Unfortunately, most people confuse AI with magic. First, it was machines, then mass production, then radiation, then genetic engineering, then nanobots. Today the synonym for magic is "AI".
@@robertpearson8546 These comments are incoherent. What exactly are you claiming when you say people "are obviously confusing AI with magic."?
@@robertpearson8546 But why shouldn't there be a future in which algorithms can learn from google earth and their cameras to fly drones to specific places and then search for soldiers?
@@timbonator1 Algorithms cannot learn.
More widows and orphans in Russia
Both sides are losing masses of men. It’s horrible
Innocents killed on both sides
Yeah! Fist-bump?
Not as many as in Ukraine. lol
@@TheRealBillBob Stop watching RT and look at real life buddy. Russia is using human wave tactics. They've lost far more than Ukraine.
AI kamikaze drone sounds like a bad idea.
На самом деле речь идёт не о AI а, о ML Разница и в цене, и в простоте использования
that soldier said there working on it sounds like the nightmare is almost here
The massive shift in warfare towards AI and drones reminds me of Stanislav Lem's novel "The Invincible". An undefeatable interstellar warship lands on a distant planet and is confronted with the ultimate weapon, a very small drone. It looks very harmless, has no special characteristics or weapons, but a constant hunger for energy and the ability to multiply very quickly if any kind of energy is available. In the end, the indestructible warship's battle seems completely pointless...
Will this be the future of war?
A weapon that can't shoot or explode, but can absorb energy and thus deprive the enemy of all possibility to fight back?
True to the motto, entropy will win.
Ai is not guiding any munitions, they are aimed manually with analogue FPV kit. 2.4/5ghz
Ai is the future guidance, the ones that will kill us
The reflections on GPS systems and the needs of the Ukrainian army are really interesting. Thank you very much for documenting this part of the war.
Scary conclusion..
It's the f@cking Terminator. For real. If there was any doubt about Skynet, thats out now.

how many months before the humanoid/animal like robots enter the fbattle field.......
Never. Quadcopters are simply more effective than any other form. For longer ranges traditional wings work better. The only reason humanoids are better is brains and the ability to dig. But there are better things to dig than humaniod forms too.
I heared that some kind of AI animals looking like tigers or smth will soon join the war these things as drones kamikazes already a warCrime

whats more scary skynet will be born in ukraine
Add AI, we have Skynet
Watch the movie The Running Man. We are steaming towards a world where we can't trust our own eyes.
Good intense movie
not suprised when and if not already have a ground unit controlled by air support/control. Like the movie Screamers, balls with blades seeking out men on the ground and in the trench then if no human it would find a vehicle to roll under and blow a secondary charge. Side not; why do we not have an American made drone to compete with DJI???
Scary stuff. Are Westeren forces prepared? No
You watched the preparations. What is all this if not preparation? Russians are dying.
Stay with Ukraine 🇺🇦
Most of the new russian recruits have never even held a rifle let alone have had any military training. It makes them easy targets.
It makes easy targets on both sides and don’t forget Russia produces 3 times the amount of drones, plus the stockpiles from Iran.
This is why Russia has been so successful against the Western tanks and armoured personnel carriers.
Уклонисты - это уже не украинцы, а "цыгане", заявил экс-советник главы МВД Украины - Виктор Андрусив.
"Если ты уклонист, сознательно убежал. То ты не имеешь права говорить, что ты украинец. Ты цыган. Ты выбрал цыганскую жизнь. Когда кто-то начинает думать, что уклонисты, которые сбежали за границу, такие счастливые. Счастливы в чем? Что они будут жить в каких-то контейнерах всю жизнь там? Будут работать всю жизнь только на "черных" работах, потому что языка они не знают, квалификацию их не признают. Это люди, которые, спасая свою жизнь, обрекают себя на бесчестие", - заявил Андрусив.
As Ukraine gets more desperate for fighting men you’re seeing less of them on the streets, so they’re not targeted and forcibly taken to the frontline. Zelensky is even asking other countries to force the male refugees back. It’s sad to watch.
@@user-re3nl6oy9r Ukraine is in a state of war fighting for it's freedom. That's normal when you're in such a situation. Look at Russians... they're doing the same thing.. catching men on the streets. The difference is Russians almost get no training and soon after are being sent into a meat grinder where they become cannon fodder. Ukrainians get proper training and value each and everyone of their troops.
@@user-re3nl6oy9r потому - что Зеленский - враг Украины номер один!
Thanks for Reporting. Salva Ukraine! 💛💙
Putin is using soldier
I am afraid Russians watch it and learn. Drone technology is one thing, but the whole backstage, and organization, tactics. I bit more secrecy would not harm.
🤣
what to learn, mate? How to swear bad words? They knew it! How to cheer on success? They already can!

You almost don't need an army when you have drones.
Russia has more drones than anyone in the world. Ukraine's military is devasted.

Slava Ukraine!
Thank you for reporting on Russia’s genocidal war against Ukraine.
The world needs to know the truth.
What bul*sh*t. Dont you see Genocide israel doing in palestine? How can you speak for Ukrine and at the same time not for Palestine? Russia is not killing women and children, Israel is killing majority of civilians.
Так Украина начала этот геноцид в 2014 году.. Страна - террорист!
Russia has more drones. Ukraine's military is practically destroyed. They are out of men, so they have to resort to prisons. 🤣🤣
@@TheRealBillBob Ukraine doesn't accept just any prisoner into their defense forces... it's quite limited, actually. No violent offenders, no sex offenders, you have to be pretty close to the end of your time. etc. Now, contrast this with the Russian invaders...
From early in the war, Russia was offering ANY prisoner - rapists, murderers, pedos, anything goes - a free pass out of the clink after they completed however many months in the war - 6 or 12 months if I recall correctly. It makes no difference because those convicts aren't meant to survive more than a few weeks on the front lines. Russia literally uses these so-called soldiers as "meat waves" to expose Ukrainian positions and soak-up bullets, FPVs, and shells in successive assaults.
They throw these dipshits out there with zero training (for real zero training), soviet-era rifles, and without body armor... after they've sacrificed a sufficient number of convicts, only then do invaders from the "regular army" begin to operate.
They do the exact same thing with ethnic minorities from all over Russia.
It's completely abhorrent. Putin is a monster, and the Russian people generally appear to be completely apathetic (and therefore complicit) to all of it. It's disgusting.

There is no help from Britain and the USA, but there are Chinese drones.
Both sides have deadly drones. Russia have ramped production on Lancets, which have been proven to be a bane for Ukraine. One Ukrainian soldier equated them swarms of bees.
At one time, Israel developed a drone program for the Russian Federation, incl. Lancets and Outposts. Israel does not supply drones to Ukraine as a matter of principle.
Russia's offensive in the Kharkiv region was "with such speed and force" that the "meager" line of fortifications of the Armed Forces of Ukraine could not contain Russian troops, writes the New York Times, which calls it "stunning." Some Ukrainian soldiers, caught off guard, had to retreat.
Lol.. fake news
And now they are bocked down and cant advance further

From the border to Volchansk - 5 km. The United States and Britain will prohibit attacks on Russian troops on Russian territory. Ukrainians simply watched the accumulation of Russian troops on the border, thanks to Sunak, Biden and Jake Sullivan.

❗Генсек НАТО считает, что Украину не будет смысла восстанавливать в случае ее поражения
"Что касается восстановления Украины после войны, то сначала нужно добиться, чтобы она одержала верх. Если Украина не одержит верх, то будет нечего восстанавливать в свободной и независимой Украине", - заявил Столтенберг, выступая на молодежном саммите НАТО.
Это значит: если Украина проиграет, то там будет хозяйничать Россия, а значит, белым господам там не получится грабить. Значит, и не надо вкладываться туда; наоборот, пусть на это тратится Россия. Вот и весь замысел у Запада.
