Ukrainians use ‘1940s machine guns’ to successfully shoot down advanced Russian drones

- “You have teams of volunteers across buildings in Kyiv and other major Ukrainian cities turning machine guns to the skies.”
Ukrainian forces don’t have the economic capacities for lots of high-tech air defence systems, so they are using all the weapons that are available to them, says George Grylls.

Utilizing equipment that might have been dismissed as “useless”, Bravo Ukraine! 🇺🇦
I don't think machine guns will ever be obsolete.
Utilizing all they have.
don't you ever consider you may be cheering ppl towards their end?
@Philip-Knows Who is "they"?
@joewoodchuck3824 true a number of modern machine guns are variants of older models. For example, the model M2 machine gun mounted on the Abrams predates WW2. Nu
umm dude, machineguns in the 1940s are basically the same as machine guns in 2020s, and will be the exact same as machine guns in the 3050s
For static defenses the old machine guns will even be better then modern ones. They are heavier and designed for sustained fire. There were lots of pictures of Ukrainian troops using Maxim MGs from the very start of the invasion
And shahed drones fly at the speed of a bi plane so there’s no technological gap
Thanks, Times Radio.
I am Russian. Many in my country on VK now realize war to be losed. Inflation does not end.😢
its going to get worse, and when you find out what your losses are.... make Afghanistan look like a picnic
@@lauchlanguddy1004Oh wow😮
You, somehow, need to get rid of Putin. 🫸🏼🔥🙄
You are providing misinformation large majority support Putin and War. Ukraine is losing Times Radio lies for cash.
@boota1979 Oh no I fear so as well!😢
i used to think manifesting was all about repeating affirmations and hoping for the best. i tried it for months and…nothing. i was so frustrated. then i heard about this book, Vibrations of Manifestation by Alex Lane, and how it breaks down the science and energy behind manifestation. it’s like it flipped a switch in my brain. once i started applying what i learned, things started falling into place like never before. worth checking out if you’re serious about manifesting.
Full stop after "industrial facility" otherwise it would sound, as it does, that the industrial facility is in "keev" Ukraine (had to turn on subtitles).
Yes. I got confused. 😅
Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦
im in Kyiv and I only hear things like geppards and various anti air missiles. never ever heard a single machine gun in two years. heard plenty of drones, missiles and anti air hits.
hiiish!!You get banned with dpelpal
Dpelpal is a misinformation Troll account account says USA yet she alleges in Tblisi Georgia, go figure.
so there was this period in my life when i kept attracting the wrong people, wrong opportunities, everything just felt…off. i couldn’t figure out why it kept happening. then one day, a friend mentioned a book called Vibrations of Manifestation by Alex Lane, saying it helped them see the patterns they didn’t even realize they had. i decided to give it a read, and wow, it opened my eyes to how much my own energy was shaping my life. seriously, this book is something else.
🙂 Слава Україна 🇺🇦 з 🇦🇺
Слава кокаина 😂
i remember this one night i was scrolling aimlessly, feeling like i had hit rock bottom. it felt like nothing i wanted was ever going to happen for me. i don’t know why, but i clicked on this link about the book Vibrations of Manifestation by Alex Lane, and something about it drew me in. the more i read, the more i felt like it was written just for me. it’s wild how much a single book can change your perspective.
a while back, i hit a point where i felt like everything was out of my control. i kept wondering why other people seemed to get what they wanted while i was stuck in the same place. then i came across this book called Vibrations of Manifestation by Alex Lane. i wasn’t expecting much, but the way it explains the connection between your energy and the life you create? it blew my mind. it’s not just a book, it’s like a blueprint for turning your life around.
putin drone? was it putin personal drone 😄
I dont know of Times is aware, but everyone in this ukrainian video was speaking russian
A lot of Ukrainians (including Zelenskyy) are native Russian speakers.
Drones are model airplanes.
Remote control airplanes..
@@comfortablynumb9342
joy stick, mouse or pedals?
Don't diminish the value of model/RC airplanes that have specific capabilities. They've become very effective.
@joewoodchuck3824
So are nukes.
@@Interglacial_optimist Nukes are controlled inertial guidance and preprogrammed flight paths. Some newer ones may incorporate GPS. It seems that the missiles are on their own once launched.
Are these the same drones that killed the British mercenary recently?
Napkin note:
News Radio: paid by defense markets?
Ukraine has all the comforts that the USA has.
Who is responsible for the society lie being told that freedom still exists?
Who told Zelenskyy freedom is owning nukes?
Freedom left the planet in 1945 Zelenskyy! 👁️ what your real reason for bringing nato into Ukraine? $$$ blood bucks!
Pulled comfort from a society for $$$$$$$$$$$$$ money 💰 ! Defense sector Gains! You are loved! ❤️
Russia is using old weapons - lol haha, losers. Ukraine is using old weapons - wow bravo, what resourcefulness
A very wrong approach is the issue of decisions from an ideological perspective. And human emotions do not always go hand in hand with reason, most often they do not. Usually it is so that too many civilians die and the benefits are not always adequate to the intended ones. There are many more to list... Current wars show this. The current war between Israel and Hamas, civilian deaths are definitely above the norm and on both sides. USA - Afghanistan in 2001, Stalin murdered his command and then was unable to effectively fight German soldiers. Or of course the current Russian-Ukrainian war. The effect will be the same as always, losses in many dimensions will be above the norm. To be more precise, if this war had not happened, they would have come out better. But often people are like that, at first it seems like a reasonable decision and when push comes to shove, it would be better if this war had not happened at all. The Kremlin has made a decision about this war, but the effect will be different from the intended one, after this war, as it is estimated, the crises in the Russian Federation will be as big as several times harder than 1991 in Russia.

Are you serious. Where's mister superpower.
Yes and I'm sure the Ghost of Keeve and the Pensioner who used a shotgun to take down a Russian jet are also real stories
Nice alternative reality you have there 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Pickle jar granny too!
100k+ ukie deserters 😮
Go PUTIN 💪🇷🇺
The innovation of using a world war two gun?
What do they use to shoot down the Hypersonic missiles?
No, they said they used machine guns for the slow drones.
Depends ! it is written Putin's drone not Russian army . it was Putin's personal drone flying there then. So if Putin sends its personal Hypersonic missiles too , they possibly use the same machine gun 😄
@rouz0
Lost in translation
Are you talking about drones which killed british merc recently?
Are you kidding me?😂😂😂 And I've got some ocean front property in Arizona and real estate on the moon...😊
Your point?
@joewoodchuck3824 that method is very ineffective. Many videos show that duel. The drones win 90 percent of the time.
I will give you 7 rubles for the real estate, not a ruble more. What say you?
@ChronicCraftsman 😎
@ how much do you want for the beach front property brother? 😎
Without air superiority, Ukraine is fighting a losing proposition. Zelensky needs to sit down at the table and find a solution with Putin. The slaughter on both sides must stop.
Nope. Putin needs to get out.
@@K.L.M.Online 🤣
@@K.L.M.Online I agree with you, but it's never going to happen. The Ukrainian people are getting slaughtered. There is no way Ukraine can win the war without NATO getting involved and that is never going to happen.
@@rouz0: could you keep your propganda targets the naive ruzzians? We are not interested.
@@K.L.M.Online ты думаешь он тебя послушает ?😀
Ukraine Mechanised 155th Division admit to 1700 plus soldiers deserting before first battle. Slava Times Radio keeps you misinformed.
Says the propgandist.
LOL. You don't even qualify for the 30iqclub with such posts.😊
@WHS_reviews Ukranians say and admit this, so I find you profoundly without facts like a Troll.
Russia has deserters too. And they're being pounded with Ukraine counterattacks. Russia lost the war a long time ago.
@@WHS_reviews не стоит обманывать себя, так оно и есть, французы не досчитались тех, кого обучали у себя, они просто сбежали😀
Ya thanks Igor
