Ukrainian anti-FPV road net tunnels are also rapidly expanding. They are broader than Russian versions, with stronger supports.

  1. What a weird f*cking sight.

    This is just as mind boggling and surreal as the trenches and endless barbed wire must have been to the soldiers in the first World War.

  2. Next thing will be sword swinging on these drones to cut the nets along with four or five others with bombs on them.

  3. When we saw the russian version everyone was : shitty thing, trap, useless, smekalka etcetc, now we have the Ukrainian one, perhaps better but still the exact same idea, that why you never underestimate an enemy, he can still have good ideas and kick your ass if you’re to complaisant.

  6. Probably a dumb question, but is this netting an option for children’s playgrounds or the schools?

  7. The Russian ones just seemed to have a lot of gaps and seemed shoddily built. As is typical the Ukrainian ones seem well built and professional looking. And therefore more effective. That’s the real difference.

  8. Why do most the videos coming out of Ukraine have music? Don’t the people know it ruins the video?

  12. Is this really useful?

    I mean, one drone can blast a hole in the net, others can use it to pass the net.

  13. Imagine you see a swarm of drones coming right at you down the tunnel

  15. “They are broader than Russian versions, with stronger supports. ”

    This is a bit misleading. The Russian net tunnels also bear the weight of kleptocracy, orcish design and installation, cheaper materials. and a smarter opponet. It’s a wonder that they can stand at all.

  16. This feels like those old ww2 propaganda videos where they try to make everything that the Allie’s have seem vastly superior to what the Germans had.

    They be like “yes the MG42 might be the most feared weapon on the battlefield but ours doesn’t blow through ammo so quick”

  17. May want to keep them there forever
    Looks like a new infrastructure element

  18. They also have good road maintenance. I didn’t see any holes in that road

  19. As a retired Army Targeting Officer, it’s interesting to see the technological developments and how they affect operations. Now Ukrainian and orc targeteers are analyzing the tunnels looking for the best way and location to defeat or exploit them. At turns? Over bridges? at the endpoints? Use thermite drones? Artillery? Every planned opening, branch, and termination point is a potential, even probable target. Tunnels provide some protection (nothing provides complete protection) but give away a lot of potentially useful intelligence regarding routes and positions, and simplify targeting. Now the targeteers need to pay particular attention to the choosen path since they are now priority routes for re-supply and movement. I guarantee that there are people on both sides working on this problem.

  20. I have an idea. Lets ask Australia to send their biggest baddest web spiders to Ukraine so they can construct huge webs between every pole. Any enemy drones managing to pass through will die shortly after being chomped on by said spiders, and promptly poisoned into eternity. As a sideline, Ukraine’s allies can drop gazillions of live Aussie spiders into Russia and trigger a conflagration of sorts. Who’s with me?

  21. European manufacturing and supply base will win over Russia who only have meat in abundance.

  22. This is what innovation is in war. The idea to do this would have NEVER occurred to me

  23. Unfortunately drones with thermite showed to be really effective against the nets

  26. This is weird but it’s sensible. Putting up a pole + a net costs almost nothing but the enemy has to waste artillery or drones to damage it which is a lot more expensive

  28. If you asked me 10 years ago, what the future or warfare looks like. I didn’t think fencing made of… Fishing nets? lining the roads would have made it in even as a joke.

    Just shows you how weird reality can be.

  29. Cool but take down a cople of poles and the whole thing collapses like domino or?
    If a truck gets stuck on the netting they pull the whole thing with them?

  30. I for one did not have scissor drones on my 2025 war bingo card.
