Western analysts: drones changed the course of modern war

Driplots have become a key tool on the battlefield in Ukraine - both for defense and offensive. According to The Sun on Sunday , according to the estimates of Western officials, drones have become the main means of defeat, replacing traditional artillery.

Analysts say that 70-80% of all losses among Ukrainian and Russian military are caused by drones. Eight of the ten wounded or dead were victims of remote attacks made by operators who can be tens of kilometers from the front line.

Ukraine is at least 100 attacks of enemy drones every day - on average one attack every 15 minutes. Russian Kamikadze drones are cheap, but effective-they can hang in the air, waiting for the team to defeat the target.

The former British military intelligence officer Phil Ingem emphasized that the figures recorded in Ukraine testify to a radical change in the nature of the war. "Drones will play a central role in all future military campaigns," the expert said.

The Ukrainian military has already adapted to new conditions - drones have become not only a weapon but also a eyes on the battlefield. According to the commander of the Achilles regiment Yuriy Fedorenko, more than 65% of the enemy's goals are detected and destroyed by unmanned systems.

In response to this effectiveness, Ukrainian drone operators became the number one target for the enemy. "If they find the operator, everything rushes to us," said Mayor Vasyl Sergeant, one of the UAV pilots.

Ukraine also developed innovative "drones-viruses"-the so-called "Trojan horses" that can affect not only equipment, but also penetrate into the enemy systems, exposing the location of Russian operators.

Meanwhile, Russia continues to improve its means of defeat: only from January to March of this year, more than 10,500 planning bombs have been released, many of which are modified "stupid" ammunition, transformed into high -precision weapons. Particularly alarming is the development of a new bomb "Drel" based on prohibited cassette elements.
