Ukraine's air defence has been bolstered after the Viktor anti-aircraft machine-gun entered operational service, to help combat Iranian-made Shahed 'suicide drones'.
The Viktor is a twin 14.5mm barrelled anti-aircraft weapon, capable of shooting down and destroying drones, fighter aircraft and helicopters at distances of up to 1.24 miles.
The armed forces of Ukraine have received 15 of the guns, which are typically seen mounted onto the rear of Toyota Land Cruiser vehicles.
