@20002ist @SecureOwl You don't fire through the meatslicer because when the drone explodes, you have to fly through the debris and blast. You fly parallel to the drone and shoot out the side from the rear cockpit while the pilot flies from the front cockpit. https://www.twz.com/air/this-is-how-ukrainian-yak-52-crews-hunt-russian-drones #DroneHunter #Yak52 #CivilAirPatrol
This Is How Ukrainian Yak-52 Crews Hunt Russian Drones
Although only small in number, the propeller-driven trainers and their crews' World War I tactics are claimed to be enjoying success in bringing down Russian drones. Although only small in number, the propeller-driven trainers are reportedly enjoying disproportionate success in bringing down Russian drones.
Imagine a 1970s propeller trainer taking on high-tech 21st-century drones. In Ukraine, the Yak-52 has been pulled from flight schools and repurposed as a "drone hunter." It’s a low-tech solution to a high-tech problem, and it’s working remarkably well. 🛩️🇺🇦 #Aviation #UkraineWar #Yak52 🧵 1/

Ellie‽ (Radio Edit)Oh yes, I forgot to share this earlier. I had some more old planes fly past earlier, a Douglas DC-3 flanked by a couple of Yakovlev Yak 18Ts and a Yak 52.
