Details
It was her first combat launch, and her first hit. Natalia completed a 5-month training course at the training center, mastered various types of portable air defense systems
Natalia herself said that when the enemy missile appeared in front of her, she rejected all emotions and excitement.
I made hundreds of training launches on simulators. And then - the first combat launch and hit the target. The man-portable air defense system weighs about 18 kilograms, and the responsibility is also a burden. I am very glad that I managed to do it. After the combat work, I let my emotions run wild. Our mobile firing team includes female soldiers. We make every effort to achieve the result, give our all
The Air Force said that Natalia Hrabarchuk was a preschool teacher in civilian life. Since 2021, she has been an anti-aircraft gunner of the anti-aircraft missile unit of the Galician-Volyn Radio Technical Brigade of the West Air Command.
The footage shows a woman on the roof of a building “guiding” an enemy target, and then firing an IGLA MANPADS that hits the enemy target.
Gotcha. I got you, Natasha, I got you
