Haha, thanks, BF.

Interesting article in Japanese here dealing with the drone warfare now happening over Ukraine. Both sides employ both reconnaissance and attack drones, and both sides bring down enemy drones using either electronic jamming or physical destruction. The article contains three videos from Poland, two of which are in English, and a third which must be Russian as they examine the wreckage of two Polish-made/Ukrainian drones, WARMATE and FLYEYE. It makes clear that very quick spotting and super quick disabling of enemy drones is vital. With high attrition on both sides, the Russians suffer from a lack of spares, and the Ukrainians from a dearth of resupply. If you can find a translation machine you might get more out of it.(?)
In the meantime scroll down for the short videos, while the article is still up.
