Ukraine Receives Fresh Supplies Of Bayraktar Drones And Eye-Popping Numbers Of Anti-Tank Weapons Mar 3, 2022, 06:45am EST Perhaps the most surprising new addition to the Ukrainian arsenal is a consignment of Bayraktar TB2 drones from Turkey. These Predator-like drones, armed with small laser-guided missiles, have proved surprisingly effective against Russian forces, defying expectations that they would be easily shot down, and destroying numerous Russian vehicles. Turkish Air Force Airbus A400M transports made a number of flights between Ankara and Rzesow in Southern Poland in the final days of February. These were believed to be carrying military supplies for Ukraine. Rumors that this might include additional Bayraktar drones were not substantiated until a Facebook post by the Ukrainian Defense Minister Oleksii Reznikov yesterday morning stating: “New Bayraktars have already arrived in Ukraine and are on combat duty.” The Ukrainian military have not released any further strike videos from Bayraktars in recent days, likely for security reasons. Some have suggested the drones could hit the giant convoy of military vehicles currently stationary on the road to Kyiv, but this is likely to be well-defended. Previous strikes have been on fuel tankers and other softer targets in a longer-term approach. If the Russians run out of fuel their offensive will stall completely and the convoy will become a target for ground forces. A recent video shot from the ground is claimed to show a Bayraktar strike on a Russian self-propelled howitzer while it was firing, but this cannot be confirmed. If correct, this would suggest a shift to using the drones for tactical support and to counter Russian artillery. It may also be significant that Russian troops have started camouflaging fuel tankers to look like ordinary trucks, possibly due to losses from Bayraktar strikes. Full story: forbes.com
