Can anyone translate the watermark on the video? Are those words important to know?

  1. Imagine the PTSD survivors face heading home after this shit

  2. Absolutely fucking terrifying. Words do not do the experience justice.

  3. As if the drone’s noise wasn’t enough, the drone warning system beeping also adds to the terror and panic.

  4. That sound could be a new cheap weapon itself, drop a few speakers in the woods…

  5. Guess someone found the phone. I doubt the dude who got hunted came out of that situation in one piece.

  6. Can probably add “Dads flying model planes in the park” to the list of PTSD triggers now

    Right under Fireworks…

  7. Firstly, the zooming & zinging sounds of a drone maneuvering sharply takes on a gut-wrenching response when you know that major, life-threatening injuries, horrific pain and likely death are associated with those sounds. ***It is actively HUNTING you!!***

    I studied Russian during the Cold War–probably have forgotten 65% of it, but…the Slavic Languages are said to be more closely related to each other than the Romance Languages. I’ll leave that to linguists to argue.

    Some words & phrases in Ukrainian are nearly identical to the Russian; while I can find no commonality in other words & phrases. As someone mentioned above, the words on this video translate as: ***”The Sound of Death.”***

    Most Slavic Languages are heavily-inflected; in short, they don’t use little helper words that we use in English (of, to, with, a/an, the, etc…) and differentiate various parts of speech by adding little “verbal tags” to words. These little additions lets the listener know WHO is DOING WHAT to WHOM by WHAT MEANS, etc….

    They also don’t use articles, such as “a/an” or “the.” So **”a sound”** or **”the sound”**, as a subject, are identical in both Ukrainian & Russian: **Звук** (zvook)**.** Also, the noun “**death,**” if the word is being used as a subject, is the same in both languages: **Cмерть** (smert’ in Russian, or smart’ in Ukrainian). Notice the slight difference of pronunciation.

    However, to indicate “**of death**” (using the Genitive Case), you need to add a linguistic tag to the noun. This is where the two languages diverge a bit. In Russian, you would get rid of the soft sign “Ь” and add “И” to the word, giving you **Смерти** (SMER-tee); while in Ukrainian, you would get rid of the soft sign “Ь” and then add “i” to the word, giving you **Смертi** (SMAR-tee).

    So, for someone who studied Russian, it should be ~fairly easy to figure-out the Ukrainian, even with the minor changes in spelling (and pronunciation):

    In Russian: **Звук смерти** (zvook SMER-tee), and In Ukrainian: **Звук смерті** (zvook SMAR-tee).

  8. Sounds like a Tie Fighter… except real. Horrid

  9. Now I know why some russians just stands there whenever a drone sees them

  10. I’m starting to have PTSD from these videos without having seen a drone flying… I can’t imagine what these veterans will face if they get out of this.

    I guess next logical electronic warfare will be portable and targetable IEMs or something like that.

  11. “Some say Banshees are the hounds of Death, baying to herd their prey into the arms of their master.”

  12. Fuck that sound, I’m getting chills while watching on my phone.

  13. I’m sure this sound will go on the terrifying list along with Stukas, Katysusha rockets etc.

  14. this is horrifying. sleep must be difficult after a close call with a few of these.

  15. The more and more I hear the noises of these drones the more I hear those Aztec death whistles.

    When the day comes that whole ‘flocks’ of these drones move into battlefields it’ll sound like the whole battlefield is screaming

  16. Life after this conflict for soldiers is going to be very difficult. Drones have added a whole new layer of ptsd to war. It’s not just loud bangs, certain noises, and smells. But the common sound of anything with a small electric motor in it as well. Which our society is dominated by. We have more things running off small electric motors than any point in human history. It’s better not to buy an electric toothbrush.

  17. after surviving this war they have no future in formula 1
