FPV Drone VS Leopard 2AV

Описание: This simulation shows the impact of an FPV Drone with PG-7V warhead, guided into the turret side of a German Leopard 2AV tank.

FPV drones have become a game changer at this stage of the war. Because they are guided to their target, they are far more accurate than most artillery. This allows them to chase and hit moving vehicles which would otherwise have been able to evade shells.

A single-stage RPG-7 HEAT grenade weighs 2.5 kg, of which the actual explosive charge is only 700 g, and much of the rest is the powder charge that propels it in normal use, but is completely unnecessary for drone applications. As it does not need the same absolute armor penetration capacity for these things, because the whole point is to attack from the side where armor is the thinnest and any exposed internal components are the easiest to disable.

Electronic warfare (EW) systems have proved to be the most effective way of stopping drones. Both sides use EW systems to jam radio frequencies in certain areas. When a drone's signal is jammed, the pilot loses the ability to control the craft or can no longer see the video signal, depending on which frequency has been disrupted.
