Ukrainian Drone Destroys Russian Tank

A newly released video shows a Ukrainian “dragon” drone apparently destroying a Russian tank using “molten thermite.” The footage was shared by Ukraine’s defense ministry on social media.

Military experts believe these drones are designed to intimidate Russian troops. Thermite, a highly flammable mixture, can burn at extreme temperatures and melt metal.

Drone expert James Patton Rogers notes that using drones to deploy thermite is a unique and frightening tactic in modern warfare. He says it could force enemy retreats through fear and the threat of molten metal raining down from above.

Ukraine’s defense ministry claims its forces have destroyed over 8,900 Russian tanks since the war began in 2022. These losses are placing a strain on Moscow’s defense spending and contributing to Russia’s high inflation.
