These videos make you realize how sad war is. This guy knew he was dead and was doing what he could to defend himself. Russian or not, he's a human brainwashed and sent to his death by a cowardly billionaire.

Should have stayed home. Yes, it's that easy.
It was his choice to die in this shit. He wanted to kill people and got killed himself. Good.
I know. I don't know his situation. These up-close videos just make everything more personal compared to the cutaway shot at the end.
There's a high chance this wasn't his choice at all. Due to depleted forces men on both sides of the conflict are getting press ganged into the military, and at least on the Russian side there's a lot of info out there of unit leaders taking bribes to place recruits into safer positions. Don't have enough cash, you go straight to the front lines.
Choice..
Oh thats what it is being drafted. Choice. Or being given the "choice": stay in prison with a few more years added or take this chance at freedom after a year while being paid.
Choice is what politicians have.
Or being given the βchoiceβ: stay in prison with a few more years added or take this chance at freedom after a year while being paid.
If you choose to go kill innocents in an invaded land to "earn" your freedom, you are the type of person that should stay in prison.
War sucks. Drones are really messed up, everyone permanently watched, day and night nowhere to hide, every lawnmower-sound in the distance might be the last you ever hear. And it's not even autonomous swarm drones yet...
My heart is with the Ukrainian People and they must win this pointless war.
Still, videos like this sadden me. Making fun of some young man dying just doesn't sit right with me. People here are calling them orks. Its just sad for everyone involved.
That's exactly how I feel.
Like every soldier
Much training you still need with a lightsaber.

yes let's lash out at the RPG round with a stick, what could go wrong?
HOMERUN!
Why donβt they put guns on the drone?
They've equipped Queen Hornets with AK-74s, but I've never seen anyone killed by them. They mainly seem to be used for psychological warfare and suppressive fire. Shotgun drones are more common, but they're used to shoot down Russian drones.
You've fired a gun, yes? They've got a lot of kick.
A 22 pistol? Barely any kick at all. Wonβt penetrate body armor though
Yeah if it hit armor it'd be like just saying hello lol
