British drones were used by Ukrainian forces to destroy a Russian-held bridge in a first-of-its-kind operation.
The strike, which took place last year, targeted a critical bridge in the occupied Kherson region that had been used by Russian forces to transport equipment and supplies.
It was obliterated following a two-month campaign involving repeated strikes by the Malloy T-150 heavy-lift drone. The unmanned aerial vehicle is manufactured by Malloy Aeronautics, a subsidiary of BAE Systems.
Ukraine said the mission, which had initially been deemed impossible, was the first known case of a drone-led attack taking down a bridge in combat history.
