Details
According to him, various types of drones inflicted significant losses on the enemy both at the front and deep in the rear. This includes damage to ammunition depots, oil refineries, air defense systems, and other infrastructure.
Our drones have shown effectiveness both at the front and far beyond its borders. This includes the destruction of equipment and damage to enemy logistics and supply facilities
According to the command, in August, Ukrainian drones hit more than 60,000 targets, mostly thanks to kamikaze drones and attack "wings."
At the same time, the enemy is trying to copy Ukrainian developments, particularly in the field of interceptor drones.
We are dealing with a direct technological race, and the winner will be the one who can not only modernize but also get ahead
Separately, he stressed the importance of training new units within the so-called "drone line" and developing electronic warfare means. According to Syrskyi, in August, the number of enemy drones that were suppressed by EW increased.
Our task is constant improvement of solutions and creation of new technologies. The work to destroy the occupiers and their potential will only intensify
Recall
Special forces of the Main Intelligence Directorate destroyed expensive air defense equipment of the occupiers in Crimea with drones. The Podlyot radar and the RLM-M module of the Nebo-M complex were hit, which significantly weakens the enemy's capabilities.
The Unmanned Systems Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine hit the Vtorovo oil pumping station in the Vladimir region of the Russian Federation. The station was pumping diesel fuel to the Moscow ring oil product pipeline.
