The Drone Battle: Ukraine vs. Russia

The domestic arms industry in Ukraine is producing an army of drones that have transformed the war with Russia. Ukrainian soldiers rely on homemade drones to gather real-time intelligence and target Russian positions, but they face constant electronic warfare from the Russian side. Drones have become a crucial tool in both offensive and defensive operations, with cheap drones destroying expensive equipment on both sides. Ukraine's domestic drone industry has grown significantly, but it still has a long way to go to meet its needs, especially as U.S. financing remains uncertain. The outcome of the war increasingly depends on the development and effective use of drones.
