The new Bayraktar TB-2 strikes on the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation mark the peculiar revival of these weapons in Ukraine, as they were preceded by a long break associated with vulnerability to Russian air defense (air defense) and radio electronic wrestling (IDP), says The War Zone. The most recent case of UAV Bayraktar UAV was an attack on the Russian boat on the Black Sea. A few weeks before, GUR also showed a video of TB-2 on another small vessel in the Kherson region.
In addition, the Navy of Ukraine showed a video of TB-2 attacks on a landing ship on the western coast of Kherson. According to the publication, Ukraine began to use these drones before the start of a full -scale war. After February 24, 2022, the Baracari attacks played an important role in the stop of Russian columns heading to Kiev. However, over time, the Armed Forces began to adapt to the threat of Bayraktar TB-2.
Drones have become very vulnerable to Russian systems, such as "shell-C1", "beech" and "Thor". In view of this, the Armed Forces mostly withdrew "barking" from the assault missions, focusing on intelligence and blows to the poorly protected areas. The publication notes, referring to Ukrainian and Russian sources that the return of "barkar" as shock weapons became possible due to the constant Ukrainian attacks on Russian air defense facilities in Crimea and Kherson.
