The Baba Yaga drone is an unmanned aerial vehicle, originally developed for agricultural purposes, used by Ukrainian forces.
Russian Battlegroup Zapad UAV operators say they have started to hunt for Ukrainian Baba Yaga drones in the Kupyansk area, a fighter from the Kontora group of Battlegroup Zapad’s 1st Guards Tank Army with the call sign «Svarog» told Sputnik.
«I am a pilot who has just shot down six agro-drones, six Baba Yaga ones. Such targets mean a lot to us, [they motivate us] to try harder. It’s like gambling already, we are hunting them on purpose,» the soldier explained.
«Despite the fact that the whole West is helping them, America is supplying its best technology, we are not standing still either, we are developing [our equipment], introducing [innovations]… We are ahead, or equal [in some fields], but we are not inferior in anything,» Svarog stressed.
