    /1. Yesterday, footage of a Yak-52 engaging a Russian Gerbera over Odesa spread online.

    I had the chance to speak directly with the Yak-52 pilot, from the unit we are currently raising funds for, and get the details of what actually happened in that video…

  6. @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. twz.com/air/this-is-how-ukrain #DroneHunter #Yak52 #CivilAirPatrol

  11. The interception of a russian Shahed drone with small arms by the crew-member of a Ukrainian #Yak-52 trainer plane. Snoopy type fighting is effective if done right

  15. 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/

  20. > The Yak-52 flew over Odessa and with high efficiency shot down our reconnaissance UAVs for a week, causing laughter in some circles...This has not been funny to UAV operators and us for a long time.”

  25. Reportedly, footage of a Ukrainian #YAK52 shooting down a Russian UAV. Gunner in the back with a rifle seems fairly dubious, but a moderately high performance prop plane with modern sights seems like it could be pretty effective for Shahed hunting away from the front lines
