Two Russian soldiers found themselves locked in a battle with a small but tenacious kamikaze drone, one that had an unbelievable outcome. The two soldiers found themselves face-to-face with the drone as it circled around. When it swooped, they dodged. When it closed in, they dived out of the way. When it stood still, they took potshots. But, as the dance came to its inevitable conclusion, one soldier found himself with nowhere left to run, the drone moving inexorably for the kill, and armed only with a gun incapable, it seemed, of doing anything to protect him.

So, in true Hollywood fashion, he threw the gun at it. The gun hit the drone’s trigger and sent it flying into a million shards, while the soldier dove onto the ground hoping his armor would protect him from the worst of the blast. Judging from the combat roll, it might have done, but it’s unclear what the ultimate outcome of this encounter actually was.
