>Both Russia and Ukraine have used explosive-laden first-person-view drones as a cheap way to deliver precision strikes on enemy personnel, equipment, armor, and positions — including in trenches, where some of the most brutal combat has taken place.
>Fedorov said the pace of the technology war in Ukraine is very fast, and new developments have short production and life cycles.
>This trend especially impacts drones, he said, because there is a constant need to adapt these systems to current electronic-warfare conditions and look for more efficient ways to use them on the battlefield.
>”Technology itself is important, but usage of technology has huge impact,” Fedorov said. “You can have the best drone, but what’s the sense if it can’t fly under electronic warfare?”
Sooo, what I am reading is that every active trench is supposed to have a targeting beacon for artillery rounds with ARM capabilities?
