Ukrainian forces have been using Yakovlev Yak-52 propeller planes to intercept and neutralize Russian surveillance drones. Recent videos captured by both ground observers and Russian drones show these vintage aircraft engaging in what appears to be dogfights over southern Ukraine.
Footage released in April, revealed a Ukrainian Yak-52 maneuvering around a Russian Orlan surveillance drone near the border of the Odesa and Mykolaiv regions. The drone ultimately descended using its emergency parachute, indicating it had been damaged.
