Fighters of the Russian cover unit of the heavy flamethrower system "Solntsepyok" use a 12-gauge smoothbore shotgun loaded with buckshot to defend the combat vehicle from attack drones. This was stated by the commander of the fire cover group with the call sign "Caspian".
According to him, the fire cover group includes several soldiers with night vision devices, small arms and anti-drone weapons. They accompany the heavy flamethrower system when it goes out for combat work.
An ordinary gun cannot be jammed or reflashed, it is reliable. However, "Solntsepyoks" are also equipped with electronic warfare systems, which have also proven their effectiveness.
"Caspian" told about another case when the Ukrainian UAV "Baba Yaga" came under the influence of electronic warfare equipment, began to blink, turn on its running lights, after which the soldiers discovered it and shot it down with small arms fire.
Earlier www1.ru reported that Russian Ka-52 combat helicopters have become invulnerable to missiles thanks to the electronic warfare system. It is capable of diverting up to a dozen missiles at a time.
