On January 4, the Achilles UAV unit of the 92nd Separate Assault Brigade achieved a significant victory near Zahryzove, south of Kupiansk. During an assault by russian forces, the unit successfully targeted and destroyed rare GMZ-3 tracked minelaying vehicle.
The GMZ-3 vehicle is a highly specialized piece of equipment designed to deploy anti-tank mines rapidly and efficiently. Capable of carrying up to 208 mines, the vehicle can create extensive minefields at a record pace, laying a strip 1-2 kilometers long in just 10-20 minutes. Such capabilities make the GMZ-3 vehicle a strategic asset in defensive operations, emphasizing the significance of its destruction on the battlefield.
