    Russian remake: “Chariots on Fire”

    >About the size of a kitten, each Wild Hornet can carry a 2-kilogram payload, such as an anti-tank rocket round. That’s four times more carrying capacity than the Mavic 3, the drone most commonly used by Ukrainian forces, which can only carry 500 grams (the weight of a hand grenade).

    >The Wild Hornet also costs a fraction of the price ($400 versus $2,000-$3,000 for a Mavic), flies five times faster (150 km/h versus 30 km/h) and can be customized to operate at a variety of ranges, payload capacities and signal frequencies, depending on a unit’s needs. A Mavic, by comparison, comes pre-assembled from the Chinese manufacturer and can’t be used in a kamikaze role.

    >Another key difference: Wild Hornets don’t use GPS, making them much harder for the enemy to track back to locate and target the operator. They can also operate at frequencies difficult for Russians to jam with electronic warfare systems.

    >Offering another key advantage, Wild Hornets are made in Ukraine with easily obtained components, and they aren’t as vulnerable to procurement challenges as Mavics, which can be held up by border bottlenecks and the Chinese manufacturer’s attempts to restrict sales to Ukraine.

    FYI, many – if not most – drones used by Ukrainian troops are bought with donations from Ukrainians and their supporters around the world.

  11. This is the Micheal Bay remake of Chariots of Fire

  12. Driver kept going and took a turn while it was still burning. Probably the trade off of getting a tad further away from the danger zone and possibly getting burned to death. Hard spot decision

  16. Ukrainians discover time travel. Truck got sent back to 1985.
