Shahed got stuck in the blades of a wind generator in Mykolaiv region: it was difficult to neutralize it

In Mykolaiv region, a Shahed warhead got stuck in a wind turbine screw. This was reported by the police.


The police dismantled the wreckage and the warhead of the enemy UAV from a height of 55 meters, which is equivalent to an 18-story building.


According to the police explosives experts, the drone hit did not detonate the warhead, but left it inside the substation, which posed a danger.


The dismantling of the drone was complicated by the fact that part of the drone was located in a hard-to-reach place and at an altitude of 55 meters from the ground. The police explosives officers planned priority actions, prepared the necessary explosive equipment and developed several plans to remove the UAV part.


As a result, the police used special equipment and a crane to climb to a height of 55 meters and used a metal detector to locate the warhead.


"In addition to the height, it was also complicated by the fact that when Shahed hit the windmill screw, it broke apart all over the plane, and the metal detector worked almost everywhere. We made holes and used special equipment to remove the dangerous part of the drone after a thorough inspection so as not to damage it. Once it was down on the ground, it was destroyed by a controlled explosion," - said Mykola Tserush, deputy head of the Mykolaiv police explosives service.
