Public sentiment towards Ukraine's drone attacks on Russian airbases is predominantly positive, with widespread admiration for Ukraine's tactical innovation and strategic brilliance. Many highlight the ingenuity of using drones to conduct significant operations against Russian targets, viewing it as a modern strategic feat akin to historical victories. However, there are concerns about misinformation, potential escalation, and the broader impact of drone warfare on global security, adding complexity to the public reaction.

Genius. Drone warfare disguised as new housing for Russian veterans!

Edit: I meant to say for the widows of dead Russian soldiers...

The drones that struck Russian airfields were smuggled into Russia, placed inside containers, and loaded onto trucks.

Russia hits civilian houses. Civilian houses hit back. 

Seems like an appropriate response.

Clever! They made them look like little tiny houses or office spaces, The roof door just looks like a skylight 😁😁😎😎🇺🇦

I heard that they actually look like regular trucks, too &amp; there are literally thousands of them all across ruzzia already.

Or maybe not...

Inside_Ad_7162

Maybe this vid is just about trolling, to fuck with their heads by showing every possible- and maybe sometimes far fetched- ways to deploy drones ?

Have it itch in places they never thought off..

_shrestha

This is my theory. 

Modular houses with locked doors, so nosy RuZ can't see what's inside, also less suspicious than regular containers. 

Probably transported from neighboring countries that are "friendly" to RuZ, and always smuggling stuff to RuZ after the global sanctions. (Ex: The many Eurasian countries at RuZ's borders) 

RuZ border guards did not scan/check these trucks, because they have crap policies, deep corruption and many smuggling routes. 

They have a vehicle X-ray scanner, they claimed, on the Kerch bridge, but somehow UKR was able to smuggle 1000 pounds of explosives over it and install them under the Bridge's main support pillars. lol 

UKR ingenuity + RuZ corruption and incompetence = KABOOM!!!

PitifulEar3303

The word "MAGNUM" written on the truck is top-tier trolling. I mean, seriously? ;)

So brilliant, this one is already being written into the history books.

Wonder how they got the drivers back out of the country

That driver is a Braveheart.  Imagine getting caught before executing your plans. Glad it went successfully well.

Maybe just drive a couple of these in but empty just for a freak out

Russian media are still threatening retaliation against Kyiv, Odesa, Kharkiv, Dnipro, Zaporizhzhia, and other cities. These aren't empty words — we've seen what "revenge" looks like.

Can someone explain why they put tires on top of their aircraft?

BeatenbyJumperCables

I worked in a flightline fire department, drove a crash truck.  I am trying to imagine what it would have been like, on a quiet day, to watch a bunch of little drones come slowly in, and blow up almost all the aircraft.  No warning, probably not a shot fired.  Totally helpless to stop it.  The stuff of nightmares. Enjoy your "Find Out" stage, russia.    You deserve this, and more.

Redneck1026

I just can't believe I am able to watch one of the greatest military raids in human history in colour from the comfort of my home. This is truly incredible.

FundyOutWest

It was nice of the Russians to put tires on the aircraft to help them burn better.

GurgleBlorp

That's a lot of new hits being shown. Definitely hopes this can help confirm several extra to the destroyed count for sure.

Jesus Christ... Slava ukraini! But... Wow.

Alexis_Lonbel

It includes the two A-50's said to have been hit. Very, very nice work, no more(/barely any) eyes in the sky will be a harsh new reality in Moscow that they aren't used to and certainly doesn't befit the global power they pretend to be.

Although, what I don't get is why they land on top of the dish, wouldn't it be better to explode below the dish? Now the dish is protecting the hull, when they could have had the explosion hit both the hull and the dish directly.

(EDIT: The drones were said to have also carried some flammable substance, perhaps thermite, so that might be why)

BitBouquet

Does someone know what music track this is?

Imagine the atmosphere inside the drone control room

drebrudrak

The operator's emotion as he pressed the detonation button once he reached the plane must have been indescribable. A light press of the finger and millions of dollars go up in smoke.

NuclearGettoScientis

That's the most beautiful thing ive seen all month.

sieberde

You can see that many planes were fueled to the brim + you can see cruise missiles under the pylons for Tu-95 from Olenya. That means these planes were armed and ready for a mission, most likely to deliver a massive airstrike on Ukrainian civilian infrastructure in the night 1-2 June, right before the meeting in Istambul.

The special dronefuk operation of SBU not only destroyed several billions dollars of russian most prized assets - it saved a few hundred lives of Ukrainian civilians that day.

Sweet_Lane

Truly remarkable military operation and one that's for the history books. What the hell are the tires for?

dtb1987

Who would have thought that explosives and tires go so well together?

tengteng23

LOL Russian warplanes, go fuck yourselves :D

Such a beautiful sight to behold! You can play this video on a loop and never gets old. Add this to Ukraine's greatest hits!

Ok_Philosopher_7239

Ok, the idea that it was AI controlled can be forgotten, that is human control. AI does not go below the plane, it won't do most of the things done here. It does not look up to see other explosions, before going for their own kill... So, that is actual FPV, which means.. how the FUCK did they do it? What kind of connection, did they just use low latency internet or.. how in the hell can that work. They have revealed the parts that are easy to figure out, and that had ample amount of evidence already: the way the payload was delivered but i'm baffled about the IT and communication side of things.

nice job. now please the rest of the airforce :D

Xenga2606

I wonder how this worked with regards to the drones that landed but seemingly didn't explode. I assume that they also had a remote-detonation button since we don't see any fuses like most FPV drones have of 2 wires that connect on a hit to close the circuit.

I think one of the smartest things to do is to land them on the planes (which they did with several of them) and then blow them up simultaneously to avoid detection.

I'm annoyed one of the drones didn't try and fly into the TU-22's air intake, god knows it's big enough to do so.

So amazing! Like a kids playground doing his thing! They even hit some multiple times 0:47

Also it's just my impression or some drones look like they are losing control? 0:15 , 1:03 , 2:28

Thanks to the Ruzzians for putting tires on top of the planes, burns real well

Thomas_F62

Holy cow! That seems like a lot of hits! This is insane! The Bastards in the Kremlin must be jumping mad!!

insufficientmind

The drones seem to be flown very slowly/without much input from the operators, almost as if there is a very high latency where input from operator is delayed by a lot making it hard to manoeuvre. I’m just guessing here, but is that why? Is it because they are being remote controlled from very far away causing the latency?

Musical_Underpants

omg these planes look SOOO OLD and rusty...

why are we scared of ruzzia?

This whole story just warms my heart. Can you target Donnie's very special new jet next?

Does anyone happen to know the song? I dig it.

lobsteriffic

for those not aware, the operation Spiderweb in russian sounds like 'Pautina' which is very close to "Putin" and I'm sure it's intentional. just like the first Crimean Bridge explosion happened on Putin's birthday

Whats the purpose of the tires on the planes?

Liberalhuntergather

Ukraine used drones to target Russian military bases, significantly damaging aircraft and highlighting vulnerabilities in Russian defense systems.
