Front without infantry: the military revealed how and why drones will change the war in 2025

As a result, a "dead zone" or "circle-zone" will arise on the front 15-20 km wide, where it will be practically impossible to move fighters and equipment. "We need to be aware of it. Grush the enemy continuously, rationally using the pilot resource, providing them and competent use. Without total air control, the infantry drones will not remain," the brigade commander explained and added that he knows how to act.

Ukrainian military Vitaliy Golovnya, who serves in a specialized UAV unit, confirmed in a comment to the focus the existence of such a trend on the forefront, which he himself noticed last year. In 2024, he personally flew for 28 km, using FPV-pions with 10-inch frames, and in favorable weather, such a device can overcome more than 30 km. Recently, drones with wings that serve as carriers of the UAVs have appeared.

Conditionally, such aircraft can deliver two FPVs at a distance of 20 km, reset that they have already overcome 20-25 km, and the ligament at a long distance will provide a relay. Heavy copters can also be carriers. The same Kamikadze FPV-paths will be dominated by the battlefield because they are produced and supplied in very large quantities. Such UAVs will attack everything that will move in the "gray zone".

Meanwhile, heavy bombers will perform the tasks of mines, and aircraft type drones will be observed from high height events. According to Vitaliy, the infantry will continue to perform its tasks on the battlefield. There is now a "gray zone", where Ukrainian and Russian positions are 1-2 km away. It is very difficult to replace people with people, so the fighters sit in the armor for 40-50-60 days, they are delivered by large drones of provision, ammunition and everything they need.

"Soon" gray zone "will be 30-40 km. The infantry will sit, there will be small points, they will observe that there are no such breakthrough Uaks. Terrestrial robotic complexes (NRC) in the "gray zone" will play the role of mobile means of HRB, will conduct video surveillance, change areas so that hostile assault groups, DRG or equipment will not break there.

They will also serve as the bearers of the "sleeping" FPV-punks, which will expect near the line of combat collision until the crew activates them remotely. "It can be on the platform for 10-15 km. This will reduce the time of falling by 10-15 minutes, the use of UAVs will become much faster and more efficient," Vitaliy Golovnya explained.

The Armed Forces Air Convict Oleksandr Karpyuk also wrote that the situation where drones will be controlled by the advanced is possible if the front line stabilizes. To do this, the defense forces should destroy more personnel of the Russian army daily than can break through the front line. According to it, this number is 2000-3000 units a day during active action. So far, the Russians are gradually moving because they are sent more than Ukrainian drones can be sent to storms.

When the number is equal, a "gray zone" will appear, controlled by drones. According to Alexander Karpyuk, a significant amount of infantry on the front cannot be static under constant UAV attacks. Now it in the Armed Forces on the line of collision is little, soon the concentration will decrease in the Russians. "I think an area of ​​4-8 km will form, which will become constant over time.

Both sides will try to fly further, affect the targets at greater distances, but the overall intensity will fall. The infantry will start to dig better, it will be time to arrange positions, there will be a more active mining of dangerous destinations,-the end of the end. He added that the war would change, although shelling of Ukrainian cities will continue and both sides will cause serious harm to each other.

The forces of defense should be made during this period as much as possible shocks by long -range means, which are called "dipstraks" and "midlstraks". During this period, Ukraine and Russia will reach the "CVO" status on the battlefield, which will open the negotiation window.
