Their use has significantly influenced combat tactics, while the development of unmanned systems remains one of the priorities of Ukraine\u2019s Defense Forces.<\/p>\n<p>This was stated by Captain Anton Bobrovskyi, commander of the company for training unmanned systems specialists at the 199th Training Center of the Armed Forces of Ukraine\u2019s Air Assault Forces. According to him, since their introduction into military units, FPV drones have become an effective tool for striking specific targets.<\/p>\n<p>Since FPVs entered service, they have become an advanced means of delivering precision strikes. This trend will continue in the future<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 Anton Bobrovskyi<\/p>\n<p>Ukrainian bomber drones are ahead of the enemy<\/p>\n<p>Anton Bobrovskyi noted that Russian forces fear Ukrainian bomber drones. He believes that Ukrainian units have a significant advantage in the use of such unmanned aircraft and in the development of the relevant technologies.<\/p>\n<p>The enemy is very afraid of our bombers. It may seem like simple technology, but we have advanced so far in this area that when they come across one of our systems, they do not even know what to do with it. We surpass the enemy many times over in bomber drones<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 Anton Bobrovskyi<\/p>\n<p>Unmanned systems are changing the rules of war<\/p>\n<p>The serviceman emphasized that Russia is also actively deploying unmanned systems on the battlefield, and Ukraine\u2019s Defense Forces analyze and take the enemy\u2019s experience into account. At the same time, in Bobrovskyi\u2019s assessment, it was Ukrainian defenders and Ukrainian society that helped shape the key trends in the use of drones in modern warfare.<\/p>\n<p>When we talk about an advantage, it does not mean that the enemy does not have these capabilities [unmanned systems \u2013 ed.]. They also use unmanned systems effectively, and there is much we learn from them. But it was Ukraine\u2019s Defense Forces and the Ukrainian people who set these trends. We changed the rules of the game on the battlefield by taking the lead, which we continue to hold. No matter how the enemy tries to spread information through propaganda about its supposed advantage, it has real problems supplying unmanned systems. By contrast, we are in a better position here<\/p>\n<p>\u2013 Anton Bobrovskyi<\/p>\n<p>Previously, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy stated that new Ukrainian drones would be capable of striking targets at distances of more than 3,000 kilometers. The development of FPV drones, bomber drones, and other unmanned systems remains an important component of strengthening Ukraine\u2019s defense capabilities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A Ukrainian commander describes a rapidly evolving battlefield where familiar-looking drones can leave Russian forces unsure how to&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":27235,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[9743,9744,4213,9742,82,2301,9745],"class_list":["post-27234","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-news","tag-battlefield-technology","tag-drone-bombers","tag-fpv-drones","tag-fpv-drones-ukrainian-military-drones-drone-bombers-precision-strikes-battlefield-technology","tag-news","tag-precision-strikes","tag-ukrainian-military-drones"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ukraine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27234","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ukraine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ukraine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ukraine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ukraine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=27234"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ukraine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27234\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ukraine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/27235"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ukraine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=27234"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ukraine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=27234"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/ukraine\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=27234"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
