Secondo un recente rapporto Yle (https://yle.fi/a/74-20215108), la Finlandia si sta orientando verso tale obiettivo "Difesa totale" modello per affrontare la moderna minaccia dei droni.
Invece di fare affidamento esclusivamente su missili da un milione di euro per abbattere un drone Mavic da 500 euro, le autorità stanno cercando una soluzione più economica e decentralizzata: Fucili da caccia.
I punti salienti:
- Riserva del cacciatore: La Finlandia ha oltre 500.000 fucili autorizzati. È un enorme, pre-addestrato "anti-drone" forza già diffusa in tutto il paese.
- Efficacia: A breve distanza, la diffusione di un fucile è significativamente più affidabile per colpire un piccolo drone in rapido movimento rispetto a un fucile d’assalto standard.
- Basso costo: Birdshot è economico; I missili Patriot no.
- IL "Negozio di penna" logica: E’ una cosa molto pragmatica "porta la tua attrezzatura" approccio alla sicurezza nazionale.
Sembra un tipico finlandese rendersi conto che se riesci a colpire un’alzavola in rapido movimento in una palude, probabilmente puoi eliminare un quadricottero russo sopra una centrale elettrica.

I thought that Ukraine already concluded that shotguns are a bit so-so when it comes to taking down drones as the pebbles have limited stopping power against the drones.
This strategy is very well known, and used. It’s not “peak Finnish”.
It also doesn’t work as well its made out to be (here). Its better than anything else a single human could realistically be equipped with, but your chances are still not good.
The article says nothing about shotguns. It says you can take a military weapon with you if you have one.
Quit talking shit.
There’s 8 private individuals with rocket launchers?! How do I become the 9:th?
WTF is this ChatGPT slop? Nobody’s using a Patriot missile to take down an FPV drone. And the article doesn’t say anything about using those shotguns for drone defense nor can it be really taken into any serious anti-drone strategy as even champion skeet shooters can’t reliably hit a speeding drone.
This doesn’t really have anything to do with drones or shotguns. They’re just officially allowing reservists to bring in their own weapons if called to service even though it has been an unofficial instruction for a while now.
Only 113 privately owned howitzers? Then how about “powerful air weapon“, does it also include privately owned 88 mm anti air cannons?
Million euro missiles to down a mavic? Wut? Not all drones are created equal, Shaheds are no mavics and, while using patriots to destroy those is monetarily not a good deal either, you aren’t downing a shahed with a shotgun.
As for using shotguns to destroy repurposed commercial fpvs, both Russians and Ukranians had been doing it for ages.
