According to the media, on August 25, a group of engineers launched drones from the starting point in the southern part of Ukraine and sent them to the Russian military base in the Crimea. These were trials, and many UAVs were in experimental mode, but some coped with the task. The details of The Economist Operation told the source close to the developers - the "darkness" of one of the prototypes of drones launched in Crimea.
According to him, Ukrainians have succeeded due to "seeds sown many months ago. " But even now, Ukrainians need to carefully plan every attack, since the Russian Federation has very strong air defense and radio electronic struggle. To get around, Ukraine has developed algorithms that seem to work. Operators start UAV early in the morning when tired Russians lose their vigilance and provoke air defense.
Then the forces of Ukraine's defense forces collect intelligence (often from Western partners) about Russian radars, radio electronic fighting systems and missile complexes. Russia cannot block all its vast territory, no matter how tried. In order to get into the Russian territory, the drones must first be overcome by the HR stations located in a 60-kilometer lane near the border.
About 35-40% of the devices are selected very close to the goals, if they do not affect them, the results of the raids will be learned by the military thanks to satellite personnel, tracking devices, social networks or local informants.
According to the Drone Coordinator of Ukraine with a call sign "Detective", drones are targeted at fuel warehouses, logistics, ammunition depots and routes of delivery of Russians, and recently most of the strikes have been concentrated on aerodromes near the borders of Ukraine. One of the goals could be the Tu-22M3 strategic bomber at the airfield in the Novgorod region. "We respond to the appeals of our brigades.
They tell us that they know where Russian weapons are stored, but they do not have the opportunity to impress it and ask us to help," the detective shared. Drones began to attack more often in Russia for several reasons. First of all, the blows to Moscow, which caused widespread resonance in the media, are designed to have a psychological impact by bringing ordinary Russians to the reality of war.
However, the Ukrainian military says that most of their operations directly support the counter -offensive of the Armed Forces, which has been going on for three months. Russia has deprived Ukraine of the initial advantage in tactical drones on the front line, which was three to one. Both sides are now in parity, says a source close to the Commander -in -Chief of Ukraine.
Meanwhile, the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation puts on tanks and other expensive equipment new systems of radio electronic wrestling, which greatly interferes with Ukrainian Drone-Kammiadze to affect the most vulnerable parts of point explosions. Both Russia and Ukraine are learning from each other, so any technological advantage will be temporary. "We had experience in protecting against Russian drones, and we quickly recovered. They will do it too," the source explained.
