Stopped the "night" drones of Russia: the Armed Forces have successfully mastered a new struggle strategy - Forbes
This is stated in Forbes, which was published on Wednesday, December 13. Media notes that since small, explosive drones gradually become one of the most dangerous weapons in the war of Russia with Ukraine, electronic protection against these drones, as well as from naked drones, which both sides use for intelligence, has become indispensable. After all, the army, which has an advantage of radio interruption, is able to control the air above the battlefield.
And the Ukrainian military is increasingly retaining this advantage. "The obvious advantage of Ukrainian forces in obstacles is not accidental. Recently, Kyiv has decided to priority a radio electronic war - the traditional power of Moscow forces," Forbes writes.
As an example of the media, the Armed Forces combat operation at the end of the summer, when the military forces were preparing the left bank of the Dnieper River on the Russian -occupied south of the Kherson region for the future crossing of the Marines. Then the troops of electronic wrestling, artillerymen and drones operators struck Russian generators of obstacles and landed Russian drones. As a result, even today, our military has been controlling the air over the wells for several months.
And nowadays, the Ukrainian military is successfully used against the UAV of the invaders of "Glushilka" in the Avdiivka area, where in November the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation first began to use FPV-punks at night, thus causing significant losses to the city's defenders. The purpose of the operation was to cut ways to supply ammunition and force the Armed Forces fighters to retreat from the positions.
However, unexpectedly for the enemy, Ukrainian soldiers began to apply a strategy that allowed to "disconnect" the drones of the Russians before they were able to attack. According to the military analyst Donald Gill, who studies the combat situation in the Avdiivka area, this means that the supply lines of Ukrainians may remain open, and the way of supplying Russians has become a real threat of blockade. "The number of Ukrainian drones has increased.
This means that the Ukrainian advantage in the radio electronic war seems to be stored in this sector. It is unknown how long Ukraine will have it, but now it saves life," the analyst said. We will remind, in the second half of November it became known that the systems of EWS will become smaller and even more powerful thanks to the new chipm that engineers create for the military.
