Forbes published a new study that shows Ukraine's significant progress in the field of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and electronic warfare (EW). Previously, these industries were dominated by Russia, but with the beginning of a full-scale war, its position weakened significantly, and Ukraine gained leadership thanks to the rapid development of its own defense industry.
Before the war, Russia was a recognized leader in the use of drones and electronic warfare systems. However, with the beginning of the conflict with Ukraine, its dominance began to decline. Russian drones and electronic warfare systems, although still powerful and effective, no longer have the impact on the battlefield that they once had. Military analysts note that the influence of Russian technologies has weakened, which is partly due to the successful introduction of new technologies and tactics by the Ukrainian side.
Since the beginning of the war, Ukraine has made significant efforts to develop its defense industry, particularly in the field of drones and electronic warfare. Thanks to innovations and rapid implementation of new technologies, Ukrainian UAVs have become an important element of tactical operations, demonstrating high effectiveness on the battlefield. In addition, EW systems developed in Ukraine have shown their ability to counter enemy technologies and changed the balance of power at the front.
The Ukrainian military has successfully adapted new tactics that include the active use of UAVs for reconnaissance, fire adjustment and strikes. The development of domestic technologies also allowed Ukraine to increase the effectiveness of radio-electronic warfare, which contributed to the decrease in the effectiveness of Russian electronic warfare systems. The integration of new technologies and the adaptation of tactics have become key factors in Ukraine's leadership in these important military areas.
