ZRPK "Pantsir-S" saved the military, effectively knocking down the target at extremely low altitude

The target was shot down at a height of several tens of meters.

During another attack by the Ukrainian military using strike-type unmanned aerial vehicles (presumably, we can talk about Polish Warmate kamikaze drones), the Russian Pantsir-S anti-aircraft missile and gun system actually saved a group of military personnel from a direct hit by a drone. The aircraft was intercepted at a height of only 15-20 meters, i.e., literally a moment before the strike.

On the video footage that appeared on the Web, you can see how the Pantsir-S anti-aircraft missile and gun system fires at air targets, successfully intercepting them. However, one of the drones flew close enough to the Russian military, but the ZRPK operator still managed to capture the target and hit it. The interception, however, frightened the servicemen quite strongly, since the latter did not understand exactly what target the missile had been fired at. However, according to the video footage, no one was hurt.

The information that the rocket was allegedly fired by accident is not true, since the explosion occurs a little later than the moment the rocket flies near the military filming.

In fact, this is the first known interception of an air target at extremely low altitude, and the case itself clearly demonstrates that the complex is extremely effective in repelling attacks of multiple targets.
