BAKHMUT DISTRICT, UKRAINE - NOVEMBER 12: A Ukrainian military man equips and prepares a drone for flight and prepares ammunition at positions 4 kilometers from the frontline as the special unit "Achilles" is preparing to carry out a combat mission at night on the heavy drone "Vampire", which the Russians call "Baba Yaga" on November 12, 2023 in the Bakhmut District, Ukraine. SkyFall, a Ukrainian company, has launched mass production of unmanned aerial vehicles. The new "Vampire" model can carry up to 15 kg of ammunition. The Armed Forces of Ukraine use Vampire hexacopters to drop different types of munitions on the enemy, such as cumulative and thermobaric, and are most often used against tanks and other armored vehicles. Unmanned aerial vehicles are equipped with a thermal imager, which allows you to attack the enemy in the dark. Ukrainian forces continue to fight to retake Bakhmut, which was captured by Russian forces in May, following a yearlong war battle. Over the summer, Ukraine regained territory north and south of Bakhmut but Russia has held the city itself. (Photo by Kostya Liberov/Libkos via Getty Images) Photographer: Libkos/Getty Images Europe
