"Slaughterbots" Now: Ukraine’s Head-Hunting Drones Terrify Russians

Russian military bloggers claim a new Ukrainian FPV drone can use thermal imaging and AI to detect faces, then fire an explosively formed projectile at a soldier’s head.

The article says video appears to show such a strike, but the claim cannot be independently verified.

Unlike shaped charges, EFP warheads can hit effectively from farther away, making them potentially more useful against infantry and anti-drone defenses.

The report also highlights Ukraine’s growing FPV drone output and the increasing use of AI guidance on the battlefield.
