An amazing compilation of Ukrainian shotgun-equipped FPV drones shooting down Russian FPVs, many of which are fiber-optic controlled.

Russian FPVs with thermal cameras are dangling lines to entangle Ukrainian “Baba Yaga” heavy drones at night.

The line will have a mechanism to break away from the attacking drone when under sufficient tension.

Ukrainian six-barrel recoilless shotgun system for mounting on an FPV is called “Predator Shooter”, developed by the Ukrainian company 3D Tech.

This system uses 12 gauge shells, apparently with a second shell firing backwards as the recoil compensation.

There is also a two barrel system to allow higher FPV speeds.

The FPV has a thermal camera, as one of the intended targets of this system is Russian drones that dangle lines to entangle the propellors of Ukrainian heavy drones at night.

TRACER: Ukrainian airborne ELINT complex

TRACER is a hexacopter-based electronic intelligence (RTR/ELINT) system designed for passive spectrum monitoring and direction finding of ground-based emitters from altitude, helping overcome ground-based RTR limitations caused by the radio horizon.

Specifications:

Frequency range: 300–6000 MHz (expandable with antennas).

Direction-finding accuracy: ~3°.

Detection range: 20+ km for ELRS 1W with directional antenna; up to 15 km for FPV control stations, ~10 km for Mavic controllers, and up to 30 km for radars/long-range UAVs.

Control/video link: up to 7 km.

Endurance: 50 min
(40 min guaranteed).

Weight: 6.3 kg.

Navigation: Optical, GNSS-free; ~400 m return error over 8 km.

Payload: SDR-based passive ELINT system (no emissions).

Crew: 2 operators — pilot and RTR operator.

An example of successful evasive maneuvering initiated automatically by the UAV, three FPVs were lost in this unsuccessful attack.

This Russian Zala-16 reconnaissance UAV maneuvered violently as it was pursued by a Ukrainian FPV, indicating it was equipped with the rear camera system.

In this case the evasion maneuvers were in vain as the FPV ultimately prevailed.

Closeup of the micro wide-angle FPV camera mounted on top of Russian ZALA-16 reconnaissance UAV.

If an approaching Ukrainian fighter FPV is seen by this little camera, evasive maneuvers are automatically initiated by the flight controller.

A Russian “Zala-16” reconnaissance UAV has a camera mounted on bottom of the fuselage.

This second camera is for situational awareness and it pairs with a top-mounted camera that can automatically initiate evasive maneuvers on the approach of a Ukrainian interceptor FPV.
