One third is hit: the Armed Forces Commander called how many drones you need one brigade (video)

In only one operation, the Ukrainian Army combat unit can spend up to 15 percussion drones. In winter, the Armed Forces of Ukraine will need a huge number of FPV drones, as one brigade spends an average of a thousand such devices per month. The situation at the front of the journalists of the TV channel "Espresso" was commented by the commander of the Aeri-Intelligence Unit Terra 3rd assault brigade Mykola Volokhov on the call sign "Abdula", which is now fighting under Bakhmut.

A thousand drones are a normal amount for the brigade per month, if you do not take into account the reserve of the first stage and strategic stocks. If the unit receives plenty of weapons, then in just one day or in one operation, soldiers can attack the occupiers of the 15 FPV-Kamikadze. "This is such a good figure," the Ukrainian commander said. According to the military, this thousand drones fly to the goals and destroys them only a third, that is, about 300 units.

The same efficiency is demonstrated by the lancet lanceolas that the Russians boast. Some Ukrainian drones do not achieve goals because of the action of radio electronic struggle, others due to bad weather or other factors. Mykola Volokhov emphasized that most of the FPV-oules of his brigade are currently buying on his own, and only a small share is supplied by the state.

He hopes that the situation will change next year, because the authorities try to develop production facilities, helping businesses financially or ordering them with drones. It is possible that in 2024 it will be possible to regulate enough FPV-ou. Weather is a very important condition for the use of aircraft. Mykola Volokhov noted that the first winter is approaching, when the Armed Forces will use FPV-punks, large night copters and many other types of UAVs.

The military has already noticed the first problems, as it was very difficult to manage FPV apparatus through a strong wind last week, but they were not going to stop. "We will adapt a little. Something will need to be changed, but somehow will work," the military assured. Earlier, Colonel Petro Chernik said that the Armed Forces is currently keeping parity with Russia in terms of drones.
