The Record of FPV-Aye Use: In Avdiivka, the Armed Forces calculated up to 40 UAVs per day

The record intensity of battles also carried out a record load on the units of the Armed Forces. Intensive battle demanded better support and logistics. The severe defense of Avdiivka was distinguished by the record use of drones-Kamikadze: the fighters launched up to 40 shock drones. The website of Defense Express told this with reference to the commander of the Terra Aerial Intelligence Unit of the 3rd assault brigade Mykola Volokhov with Abdul's call sign.

"From the positive - put a personal record for the destruction of enemy live power and armored equipment per day. The incredible amount of infantry was destroyed," the commander says. In November 2023, the settlement per day could release up to 15 FPV-pings. In Avdiivka, in some days, the number of use of Kamikadze drones increased to 40 units. This amount increases the requirements for logistics, transport and time of preparation of drones and ammunition.

"This imposes its restrictions on logistics, increases the requirements for free space in transport, so that it is at least to be taken there, the approach to the equipment of positions is changing - they need to be prepared more carefully," Volokhov notes. Previously, the unit performed tasks with pickups, then in the Avdiivsky direction the safety of fighters and operations required armored equipment. Also, the load on operators during night drones.

Double calculations with increased ammunition, more drones were involved. The enemy concentrated on the bridgehead artillery, special forces, aviation, as well as EC. At the same time, the unit that previously held the front in the Bakhmut direction, for the defense of Avdiivka was equipped much better, but still very much suffered from the work of enemy remedies. "Therefore, so many boards need to be lost in the loss ", - says Volokhov.
