Mykolaiv National Guardsmen came up with an unusual way of destroying Russian UAVs. From the materials released by the NSU press service, it follows that they are using a home-made anti-aircraft system for this. It is a pair of PKT machine guns.
To ensure the installation’s mobility, it was mounted by National Guardsmen in the back of a pickup truck. NGU fighters claim that three Shahed-136 drones were destroyed with its help.
Most of the armored vehicles used by the Ukrainian army are equipped with such 7.62-mm machine guns. NATO equipment is equipped with machine guns of larger calibers. The tank version of the PKT boasts the presence of an electric release function. She does not have a handle with a butt and a bipod. Soldiers of NGU provided the installation with a trigger mechanism that activates both machine guns. In addition, they installed an anti-aircraft sight on it.
