When defending military airfields from drone raids in Russia, a "Jedi Sword" type laser pointer with a purple beam is used. It installed a thermal imaging device on a machine gun turret.
The order for the management of military units and formations leads to the Fighterbomber Telegram channel.
Installation of a "Jedi Sword" type laser pointer with a purple laser beam on a thermal imaging device, equipping turrets with a powerful flashlight and laser pointer, providing on-duty subsectors at the airfield with two radio stations. One has personnel management, the other is for interaction with the airfield control point and the sector control point.
The authors of the channel were skeptical about this idea. They noted that many of its points raise a number of questions.
You can understand the pointer taped to the heat with electrical tape in order to see the UAV in it and show the laser target to all citizens. But due to the reliability of the design and the fact that the laser beam is not visible at all in the heat, or is poorly visible, the aspirator of this wunderwaffe, seeing the UAV in the heat, can shine the beam into the back of a comrade's head.
Earlier www1.ru reported that the rarest BMD-3 was spotted during transportation by a tank carrier, only 137 of them were sent .
