Putin Unveils Novel Drone Strategies - Russia's President Drops Mines on Ukraine via Drones
In the ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine, a new strategy has emerged, as revealed by war bloggers and open-source analysts. This strategy involves sophisticated Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), also known as drones, being used to ambush Ukrainian logistics and military movements.
Russian forces have developed a method of using multiple UAVs working in coordinated "strike packages." These packages typically include two reconnaissance drones and one strike drone. One of the reconnaissance drones serves as a repeater, extending the control and strike range of the attack UAVs up to 300 kilometers.
The Russian forces use fiber optic UAVs to detect and ambush Ukrainian vehicles moving along key roads, posing a significant threat to Ukrainian logistics and movement in contested areas like Kupyansk Raion. This tactic enables Russian forces to conduct surprise strikes deep into Ukrainian territory, reconnoitering important targets such as airfields and launching coordinated missile strikes with greater precision and timeliness.
For instance, reconnaissance drones have been used to support missile attacks on Ukrainian airfields many kilometers behind the frontline. By coordinating various UAV types, Russian forces are increasing their situational awareness and control over Ukrainian rear positions, thus degrading Ukrainian operational capability through effective battlefield interdiction.
In summary, the new Russian drone tactic under Putin involves: - Coordinated drone strike packages with reconnaissance, repeater, and strike drones working together. - UAV ambushes on transportation routes to disrupt Ukrainian logistics. - Extended operational reach of drones to conduct deep reconnaissance and precision strikes. - Use of fiber optic UAVs for communication and targeting precision.
These revelations come from detailed analysis of battlefield UAV employment and have been highlighted by war bloggers and military observers focused on the evolving air and drone strategy in the Russia-Ukraine conflict.
