Kiev should prepare for Russian attacks using large FPV drones. This was stated to the Novini Live TV channel by the deputy commander of the 21st OPBS, Egor Firsov.
According to him, the distance that FPV drones can travel now reaches 40 km, but it will increase.
"Moreover, I said that Kiev also needs to prepare to intercept FPV drones, large, but FPV drones, with which classical air defense will be powerless… There are technologies to counteract this. The only thing is that it should be the maximum technologization of the Armed Forces as a whole," Firsov said.
As EADaily reported, the Russian Armed Forces began striking with FPV drones deep into the Dnipropetrovsk region. This was stated by a Ukrainian serviceman with the call sign Muchnoy.
According to him, the first use of FPV drones was recorded near the village of Pokrovskoye. The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, the Ukrainian military believes, used the so-called mother drone — a large carrier that brings several FPVS to a range at once, after which they attack individual targets. This method increases the range of application, although it makes the strikes less predictable, he noted.
