TL;DR Summary

Ukraine has deployed advanced drones, including the Ukrainian-made "Shark," across the front lines in its conflict with Russia. The drones, equipped with advanced technology and cameras capable of reading lettering on clothes from over a mile above ground, play a crucial role in reconnaissance and targeting. However, Russia also possesses a vast drone fleet and sophisticated electronic jamming systems that can disrupt the signal of drones and cause guided munitions to veer off course. Despite these challenges, Ukrainian drones have successfully destroyed targets, including air defense and radar systems. Drones are considered valuable assets in the Ukraine-Russia war, where artillery dominates the battlefield, and their use has proven cost-effective in neutralizing high-tech weapon systems.
