In my opinion, it is crucial to understand that drones (of course war in Ukraine with drones it’s not only an FPV drone. That’s CUAS. ELINT. Tremendous amount of data that must be analysed) are about two things: threats and opportunities.

And if you the ability to observe the war you must understand how to integrate them into your army, what capabilities they give you and what kind of threats they will create.

Most of people if they talk about the «kill zone» they imagine a large amount of FPVs flying around. That’s true. But FPVs are not creating a «kill zone». ISR drones do.

Screens from a Ukrainian ISR drone observing an area with more than 30 trucks approximately 100 km from the FLOT.

That’s why it is important to built a couple of echelons with CUAS: IN drones, radars, different sensors, AD systems and, of course, EW systems. Situational awesomeness and capability with the help of software and AI to work with data are crucial in a modern warfare.
