The military has begun testing a new small anti-aircraft defense (air defense) system designed to destroy small drones. Craftsmen have combined three 7.62x54 mm PKM machine guns into a single complex.
The triple machine gun mount is designed to shoot down targets such as the heavy Baba Yaga hexacopter and large aircraft-type drones.
In this situation, the importance of shooting accuracy has increased. Now, large drones need to be destroyed as quickly as possible upon detection. We are responding by manufacturing a machine for machine guns with powerful rifle cartridges, which will increase the density of fire.
The survivability of such UAVs has significantly increased, and they have begun to suspend armored plates from body armor under them. Therefore, a more powerful cartridge is needed for destruction.
Earlier www1.ru reported that the Atlant missile ship with the Vulkan installation and RBU-6000 rocket launchers went to the Barents Sea.
