Ukrainian Pilot Downs Russian Jet Drone in Nighttime Interception

A Ukrainian Air Force pilot intercepted a Russian "Geran-4" jet-powered drone during a nighttime attack on Ukrainian cities, with footage of the shootdown released on Saturday, November 14. The video shows the pilot destroying the drone with a precise strike. The 204th Sevastopol Tactical Aviation Brigade published the footage on Facebook, stating "night hunting continues." The interception occurred during a Russian attack involving 96 Shahed-type drones, 61 of which were jet-powered, along with Gerbera and Parody decoy drones. Ukrainian air defense neutralized 81 enemy drones. Russian forces have reportedly adopted a new tactic of shutting off jet drone engines before impact. The attack took place overnight against November 14, with the brigade confirming the pilot's successful engagement during the aerial defense operation.
