This has to be the stupidest decision ever. Now those buildings are legitimate targets.

Maybe that's the goal. Freeze the front in Ukraine and turn global public opinion against them with video of Ukrainian drones striking Moscow high rise apartment buildings.

[–] IphtashuFitz@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Ukraine likely wouldn’t fall for that bait. Keep targeting legitimate military targets.

That high rise looks to be very expensive. Odds are a few people that hang out there are associated with Russia's invasion. This makes them a legitimate target already.

Putting anti-air on it is stupid because it clearly confirms it as a legitimate target.

Drone: "Flying low and in between buildings..."

Moscow turns high-rises into valid military targets.

Can buildings withstand the vibration and pushback of such weapons? And how do they stock them with ammunition? Is this shit sustainable in any way?

I'd say: Don't bomb those buildings - just let some drones cruise over them and let the AA do the destruction to the structure.

Even if Russia never fires them it means they’re not in use elsewhere.

[–] ladicius@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Attrition, but they do it to themselves... Clever orcs, those ruzzkis.

[–] lurch@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 week ago

yeah, most buildings can withstand that. AA don't have recoil like howitzers. AA rockets and lasers even none at all.

Wait weren't drones supposed to make helicopters obsolete!???
