Russian soldiers captured US PQ-20 Puma Drone with state-of-art rech – Sputnik
Russian experts and engineers obtained unique samples of Western military equipment during the special military operation.
Studying them will allow Russia to learn more about their vulnerabilities.
Russian servicemen downed a US RQ-20 Puma drone with hardware intact, a counter-drone expert told Sputnik.
“Specialists of the electronic warfare group in the Zaporozhye region managed to ground an American RQ-20 Puma drone. It was a rare case in which it was possible to land the drone with its components unaffected, so to speak. We have a few samples of drone systems at our disposal. We will work with them,” he said.
He further noted that there was another target around – the Ukrainian Baba-Yaga drone – which was shot down by Russian soldiers.
“Near the RQ-20 was a Baba Yaga drone, which was shot down with small arms. Upon inspection, it turned out that the copter was equipped with a Starlink repeater and a drop system with two ammunition,” the specialist added.
