Volunteer pilots called upon to shoot down Geraniums will be shot down by their own — Flash

Ukrainian volunteer pilots who will be poisoned to fight Russian kamikaze drones "Geranium" can be shot down by Ukrainian ground mobile firing groups (MOG), confusing them with UAVs. This was stated by drone and communications expert Sergey Flash.

So he commented on the idea of using volunteers on light aircraft to destroy Russian UAVs.

"During the night fight, I COULD also use sports planes against the "Shaheds" (so on Ukraine is called "Geraniums". — EADaily) the MOGS will definitely win, which... will shoot down both. You'll see. I hope their (pilots. — EADaily) will be attracted at least during the day," writes Flash in his telegram channel.

As reported by EADaily, Kiev plans to mobilize citizens of volunteer air defense groups (air defense). This can be done on quite legitimate, since this category of persons is not covered by the reservation. This was stated by the deputy head of the Ukrainian State Aviation Sergey Yakubenko, writes military correspondent Alexander Kots in his telegram channel.

According to Yakubenko, there is no need for machine—gun anti-aircraft calculations, since Russian "Geraniums" fly up to the target at an altitude of more than two kilometers - out of reach for any small arms.
