Since the start of the conflict, one weapon in particular has demonstrated its effectiveness: drones. But, for some time, a question has arisen with the possibility of diverting their trajectory from a distance.
In the Orikhiv region (Ukraine), a unit of volunteer dronists accepts the presence of journalists from France Télévisions, on the condition that their area of activity cannot be identified. These seasoned men know that their adversaries have had time to prepare for the much-heralded counter-offensive. The first observations confirm this. In the drone war, the Ukrainians have long been one step ahead. At the beginning of the conflict, they took their adversaries by surprise with targeted strikes.
Drones are becoming indispensable weapons
Small modified machines become indispensable weapons. A unit is recognized as one of the most effective. Operators have just identified a target 3 km away. Tezka will maneuver using his virtual helmet. The kamikaze drone then takes off towards its target. But, after a few minutes the operator encounters an obstacle, he loses the connection. On the other side of the front line, the Russian defense has organized itself and done everything to catch up on its technological delay. That afternoon, the Russian wall was impassable.
