Ukraine has built a drone turret using two Kalashnikov rifles as its main attack option.
They're a cheap platform that the country's defense tech incubator, Brave1, says it can scale quickly.
It's already been used in combat, with more than 5 units testing it operationally, Brave1 said.
A Ukrainian manufacturer developed a roving turret with two Kalashnikov ****** ault rifles for its main armament, as Kyiv aims to build more cheap ground drones to fill dangerous infantry roles.
The uncrewed ground vehicle was recently used in combat by the Security Service of Ukraine's Alpha Group special forces to destroy a Russian ambush drone, said the country's defense tech incubator, Brave1, on Thursday.

Dave Portnoy has a new book coming out, along with a spiffy Wall Street Journal profile piece to go with it.
As one might expect, that means the Barstool Sports founder has some big claims to make about his media empire's rise and how he's kept it successful and profitable despite critics and controversy.
"Dave Portnoy Has One Rule for Success: Hire Great People and 'Let Them Run Wild'" from Joshua Chaffin hit the WSJ on Friday night, and includes many of the usual topics about Portnoy. A recounting of his rise, examples of how he's maintained success, and how he's staved off the many, many times he and Barstool have been accused of misogyny, racism, and more.
Within the piece, there are references to Call Her Daddy, the raunchy advice-and-comedy podcast created by Alex Cooper and Sofia Franklyn in 2018. The infamous podcast was a huge hit for Barstool, but by 2020, Cooper and Franklyn were at odds with Portnoy, and their partnership was starting to show signs of fraying. Franklyn ended up leaving the show, while Cooper continued to host the podcast at Barstool until 2021, when she signed an exclusive deal with Spotify and eventually launched the Unwell Network.
While Call Her Daddy was a prime example of Barstool as an incubator for rising talent, it also proved a cautionary experience for Portnoy, showing how success often leads people to take their talents elsewhere.
