🇺🇦 The "Tor" anti-aircraft missile complex is usually intended for hunting UAVs.

But on this beautiful day, the roles changed: the hunter became the prey.

One winged unmanned aerial vehicle of the Armed Forces of Ukraine detected the Russian Thor, and another - winged kamikaze "switchblade 600" - destroyed it. With the joint efforts of the Defense Forces of Ukraine and the Security Service of Ukraine, we are destroying the occupier.

Bring us more iron, dear occupiers, because the forces of the 14th separate regiment of the BpAK are always ready!🇺🇦

I'd be curious if that's a confirmed kill or just knocked out of action. Looks like a solid hit, but I'm not sure if it nailed anything crucial. Makes me wonder about the switchblade 600 , as that did not look like the Javelin like explosion which I would expect from an anti-armor warhead, but maybe I was just expecting a secondary. I looked at some previous Javelin hit, and they were mixed in the armors explosions.
