Ukrainian Defense Forces Boost FPV Drone Use by 25% By End of Summer

The General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine has reported that last month, Ukrainian Defense Forces increased their use of FPV drones by 25% compared to the beginning of summer.

Ukraine’s Commander-in-Chief Oleksandr Syrskyi held a closed video conference with commanders of unmanned strike systems to review the interim results of their joint efforts.

During the meeting, representatives from all branches of the military discussed the specifics of deploying unmanned systems and their future development. Tasks were assigned to enhance capabilities in this area.

Ukrainian Defense authorities also highlighted the effectiveness of FPV drones in targeting Russian Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), particularly "Lancets."

"Unmanned systems are rapidly and dynamically evolving in the context of intense warfare, and the Ukrainian Armed Forces must stay one step ahead of the enemy. We continue to work on this 24/7," stated General Oleksandr Syrskyi.
