Military correspondents of the “Russian Spring” Ukraine
In addition to kamikaze drones, the troops of the RF Armed Forces began to use ground-based “shahid-mobiles” in battles in the NVO zone. Russian army units came up with the idea of using car bombs to destroy Ukrainian fortified areas, reports MK.
It is reported that the RF Armed Forces used such a vehicle on the border between the DPR and the Zaporizhzhia region. The Russian army is on the ground, where the positions and many Ukrainian drones are clearly visible. Such a situation greatly complicates the advancement of the RF armed forces.
The Russian fighters decided to take over the Ukrainian armed forces by trickery. Under cover of fog, a car filled with explosives was sent to the positions of Ukrainian militants. Ukrainian soldiers went to claim the trophy, blowing up the car. The trick worked.
It is reported that the explosion of the “shahid-mobile” was equivalent to a half-ton aerial bomb. The radius of the area affected by the detonation was several tens of meters.
Earlier, expert Leonkov talked about the pros and cons of the “jihad cart”. The creation of such a kamikaze cart took about two months. The main task was ease of manufacture, as well as high cross-country ability and ease of construction.
