The Ukrainian military has been putting their Turkish-made Bayraktar TB2 drones to work against the invading Russian forces. This video reportedly shows the destruction of a Russian Buk-M1-2 9A310M1-2 TELAR air defense system near Horodeshchyna, Ukraine, about 25km northwest of Ivankiv, north of Kyiv.

Interestingly, the Ukrainian drone is neutralizing Russian air defense systems that, for whatever reason, are not able to detect or shoot down the drone itself. Another significant point to consider is that Russia hasn't been able to achieve control of Ukrainian airspace as drones and other aircraft are still able to operate.

Ukraine bought six of the Turkish-made drones, although reports suggest some may have already been shot down by Russia. As the video demonstrates, the drones are able to effectively target Russian forces, but the drone is only able to carry four munitions at a time, and given the massive columns of Russian military vehicles moving into Ukraine, even continuous drone strikes may have limited effect on the invasion. It's possible that Ukraine is neutralizing Russian air defenses via drone strikes to open the skies for manned strike aircraft sorties.
