Kudos to whomever came up with the VAMPIRE acronym.

Respect to the people of Ukraine.. Stay strong Ukraine.. 👍Greetings from Denmark.

Those tiny helicopter camera drones are 100% cool. The enemy would never see them.

Ukraine are gettin the TOW missile and launchers , that’s bad news for Russia amazing night vision that can see through tank smoke 💨. Russia are gonna be in for a slobberknocker of a fight , Ukraine will prob use these for a counter offensive.

Good to see more and more defensive capabilities being sent over.

the russian army has also updated their equipment. the will now give out boots that are the same size.

That was a AH-1Z Viper that the APKWS was being loaded onto. Not a AH-1W Super Cobra.

Shiny new kit. The vampire system looks great I need one for my truck, I would use it on supermarket delivery vans and people that hog the middle lane. Black hornet is expensive I hope they justify the cost vs. civilian drones.

Thank you United States 🇺🇸 and United Kingdom 🇬🇧

Thank you UK and US

It is a great way to test out your new weapons in Ukraine :)

this is not National Advanced Surface to Air Missile System, this is Norwegian Advanced Surface-to-Air Missile System

What NATO is doing is the equivalent to taking your car to Germany so you can drive it fast

They need to get some longer range systems that will allow strategic supply and movement interdiction. Like, taking down that bridge from Russia to Crimea.

@Forces News • Those Black Hornet micro drones look amazing. The explanation of the VAMPIRE system helps. I didn't realize it was so portable that it could be mounted on a pick-up truck. You saved me some research time. Thanks. 👍

All these measures should protect civilians from Russian wwar criminals

Nice bit of kit

A fragmentation grenade on a microcopter would be a good weapon against troops inside buildings and trenches.

Thanks Much !

Both the NASAM defense system and the Black Hornet are developed and mostly produced in Norway, and in this case the UK involvement is just as a channel for funds and logistics organizing the shipments to Ukr.

God bless America 🇺🇸 and freedom

1:09 That's the smallest camera drone I've ever seen, good luck shooting them down with AK's 🤣🤣

Neat video. Thank you.

Good to test them!

Nice 👍 Ukraine really needs it. They have been suffer so much 😭 Amen 🙏

Russia are absolutely done with

perfect!

1:00 I want one of those just to fly around my living room

My father worked as an engineer in the USSR for nine years. He came home with stories of Russian incompetence and corruption that were utterly incredible. Here’s a brief example. First, Dad’s project was enormous, employing thousands of technically trained professionals from around the world. Also thousands of unskilled local Russians were employed as laborers. On a normal day less than half of the locals showed up for work. This was common and accepted practice. There’s a Russian expression that goes something like this: “If Sergey is missing, you won’t find Ivan or Boris either”. (The expression assumes you know three Russians finish a bottle of Vodaka). Laborers used brooms, shovels, cleaning materials etc…. To efficiently equip the laborers, a supply of tools and materials equal to 1/2 the number of laborers was kept in stock. This practice worked perfectly until a local historic anniversary celebration neared. All employees wanted to attend and were given the day off. However, attendees needed money to enjoy the celebration’s foods, drinks and games. One day shortly before the big event, 100% of the laborers showed up for work. The broom crew soon realized they were short brooms by half. The laborers quickly solved this problem by following the Communist Party Promise of “Full Employment”. All brooms and handles were cut in half, holes for handles were drilled into the mini brooms. A full crew spent the day pushing half brooms.

TO ALL VIEWERS: Ukraine is a cause worth supporting. Let's all contact our government representatives to urge them to increase military aid to Ukraine. You can call your representatives, send them an email, send them a good old-fashioned letter, respond to one of their Tweets ... something. Take the time to help Ukraine now ... you'll be proud of yourself when you do.

Micro drones were released info long ago.. But damn they're perfect.. You'd have to use a shotgun to hit .. Can even just fly on treeline as a blocking means

Slava Ukraini!

The micro Drone is pretty cool

Why on earth would you reveal military strategy and weapons publicly??? Isn't military tactics suppose to be classified especially for enemies??? This is why I don't trust news anymore

Just keep that gear going over there.

The VAMPIRE is basically a technical-in-a-box! Very fun, and I love how easy-to-use it is!

Some hellfire missiles would be useful too.

awesome!!!

Amazing

Since when does NASAMS stands for 'National Advanced Surface to Air Missile System' and not for Norwegian Advanced Surface to Air Missile System?

Wouldn't a sound seeker be the best way to detect drones? You usually hear them before you see them.

Couple of MOAB’s would be nice.

them micro drones cool

That was great

Superb !

Muzzle man in action🐅

Getting to test their weapons out and gather data essentially

The drone is Norwegian

Black Hornet though 😍

APKWS II - 70mm Hydra rocket on AH-1Z Viper. Rocket pod with rockets equipped with laser guided kits. How many mistakes can you make in 108 seconds?

ahh, classic armed toyota pickup trucks

the USA again testing weapons in real action

I like how they make nasams seem so technologically advanced and groundbreaking by the way they talk about it when it’s just 6 aim120 amraams stuffed into a box

lol, quite a good contrast between US military strength and the UK

That's what I call a small drone

Do you have something like the black hornet which has an explosive? Maybe it can be used to seek and destroy commanders?

0:55 Not a super cobra

this is like the latest from Q for 007...

Tim Cuber, Forces News! 😄

Thank's Great Britain.. Protecting Ukraine Peoples..!

👍👍👍

Putin picked the wrong century to build an empire...

Where are the 500 M1 Abrahams that are needed but not promised yet ?

👏👏👏👏👏👏

Just seen that the British prime minister is going to look at the funding of health benefits being paid to British citizens. I bet you that he will NOT be looking to increase the money paid to people who have health issues. But the British government is sending hundreds of thousands of pounds to send weapons to the Ukraine, things that injure and kill other people. But to help for British people to get a bit more money for them to LIVE a bit better life, that it will benefit not only them, but also benefit the economy of the country, as that money would be spent in the UK. But sending money to the UK, does it help many hundreds if not thousands of jobs in the UK. But selling arms only benefits arms manufactures. And the money that the public spend, it generates taxes that get paid to the government for them to use for the better of the country. So in other words, every member of the public are paying taxes to have some of that money to be sent out of the UK and what or how does that benefit the British population ??? We are all getting taken as FOOLS.

Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦👍✌️

I need a bolt on launcher for my Ranger.

RUSSIAN HYPERSONIC MISSILES : THAT'S CUTE , REAL CUTE

What number "game changer" is this🙄

Wow. Love those drones. Hope Ukraine can get their country back soon. Thoughts are with you all. Be brave and believe :)

How subtle the world has entered a World War and don't even realize it.

How much does the black hornet cost

It would be better for the Uk if the government stopped printing money and spending it like there is no tomorrow

Why are our tax dollars being wasted in a pointless volley of costly weapons to no point at all.??

Are we actually keeping anything for ourselves..

Then hornets you can buy for £ 100 from China , not exactly ground breaking

I don't see how these improve ukrainian capabilities

The Ukraine war is just a field test of US vs Russia weapons with real casualties.

Are ukranian military operate them??

Barret 50 cal snipers and MG-3 machine guns from Austria They could use more mines and drones the Navy said they were gonna give a ship but it was sunk of Kauai instead I thought was a waste I'd literally donate dozens of ships to Ukraine if I was president

Welcome to the laundromat

Boom...puff. go guys.

Sending more toys for the boys:)

I want a black drone for Christmas

good job god bls u ukran 🇬🇧🇺🇲🇺🇦🇺🇸🇺🇦💪🇳🇵🇳🇵🇳🇵

Glory to Ukraine!

Generals gathered in their masses............. Proxy War. Absolute disgrace.

Pip Pip!!

Send Ukrainians everything they need to reclaim 1991 borders. Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦🇨🇦!!

Russia is now trying to buy munitions from North Korea 😂😂😂 All they need to do with those 50 year old artillery shells is to file off the rust, wipe the shell clean of the strange smelling gloop seeping from the base and put it in a big gun. The shells will fire safely about 90% of the time, so a very long piece of string and a foxhole is advised. Russian roulette at it’s best.

🇺🇦 🇬🇧 Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦💙💛

There is no charity from the West to Ukraine. Ukraine is going to have to repay the total costs of this assistance; for decades to come.

Those micro drones are absolutely sick

Not 'national'. Norwegian. Duh.

Good to hear that the western world is helping Ukraine in this fight, keep going Ukraine 🇺🇦 👍 💪 💪

Sending more weapons but the other day it was England would run out of ammo in 2 weeks against Russia 😆

That drone is pathetic lol. Unusable in 10 km/h winds. It can be effective indoors at most, where no weather conditions affect it. Pity.

0:32 US learned a few things from ISIS, making weapon systems to make their own technicals out of pick-up trucks.

Rotating of stock.

One thing I haven't seen the US provide is the M-134 Minigun. Not sure why as it would be very effective at clearing Forest Strips. Слава Герою!!
