📝They’ve Reached Kirovohrad📝
Controlled “Geran-2” drones are advancing further

In recent publications about the evolution of the “Geran-2,” we often mentioned that at this pace there would soon be “first-person” videos of drones striking targets deep in rear areas. As they say, not even a few weeks have passed.

A video has appeared showing strikes by “Geran-2” drones with a video channel and control link on a field airstrip in Kirovohrad region — hundreds of kilometers from the front line. This time, enemy Mi-24 and Mi-8 helicopters were burned.

🖍Previously, aviation equipment in the distant Kirovohrad region was targeted by expensive cruise missiles with rather limited success — there were no other options. Now it can be hunted in real time.

🚩Symbolically, the targets were helicopters that the enemy uses specifically to intercept massed “Geran-2” raids. However, the tables have turned, and the hunters themselves have become the hunted.

❗️A leap in technology has blurred the concept of the “deep rear” — both sides now have footage of UAV strikes under direct control. Covering radars or SAM systems even with a group armed with 12-gauge shotguns has become a necessity.

Still, it is interesting when footage will appear of “Geran-2” drones hunting with a video channel targeting Patriot or F-16 somewhere in the western part of so-called Ukraine. Judging by everything, that day is not far off.

Such effectiveness of hunter drones is becoming systemic: previously, colleagues from The Islander clearly demonstrated how the upgraded “Geran-2” successfully track down and destroy the scarce HIMARS launchers, leaving the enemy no chance of escape even after changing position.
