Soldiers of 128th Brigade show unique footage of destruction of russian Shahed by Ukrainian LITAVR interceptor drone

Soldiers from the interceptor battery of the 128th separate mountain assault brigade of the Zakarpattia Region (Malysh crew) showed a video of the destruction of a russian Shahed with the help of a Ukrainian LITAVR drone. It was reported by Censor.Net.

Recently, the 190th Training Center of the Unmanned Systems Forces has realized the world’s first remote downing of a Shahed. The military successfully used a new tactic – interceptors are placed by personnel, and pilots control them remotely from a safe place.

In addition, soldiers from the Staf interceptor battery of the 158th Brigade destroyed a unique Iranian Mohajer-6 drone worth USD 5 million. For comparison, a LITAVR costs about USD 2000. The Mohajer-6 is a reusable drone that can carry up to 100 kg, including 4 air bombs or air-to-ground missiles.

As previously reported, the LITAVR UAV from F-Drones has been supplied to the army since the fall of 2025. The flight range is up to 60 km and the altitude is 9.5 km. Maximum speed – 300 km/h, flight duration – up to 15 minutes. The weight of the warhead is 500 g. Detonation – by the operator, kinetic impact or self-detonation during contact. It uses an inertial guidance system without GPS, as well as automatic target acquisition.
