A new type of rifle bullet in Ukraine could give infantry a better way to survive unjammable drone attacks
Briefly

Anti-drone rifle bullets are being developed in the Ukraine war to provide ground troops with safer options against drones. Ukrainian forces have introduced a version capable of firing from NATO rifles to disperse pellets and incapacitate drones at a distance. This initiative follows the Russian military's prior experimentation with similar ammunition. The design allows for rapid response to aerial threats, significantly increasing the chances of downing modern drones that pose serious risks in combat, thereby enhancing infantry safety on the battlefield.
