The Russian Army has modified its launch tactics of attack drones against Ukraine to avoid aerial defensesas explained by the spokesman for the Ukraine Air Force, Yurii Ihnat.

The night of May 26 marked the most extensive drone attack on the war on a large scale, which involved 355 Type and Loxing Attack drones.
The new Russian tactic consists of launch the drones at high height, more than two kilometers from the ground y constantly change your routes. Then, the UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle or unmanned aerial vehicle) They are launched directly on the targetIhnat explained.

The mandated federation has been deploying Iranian manufacturing shahed missiles and their national production copies, the Geransfor overwhelm Ukrainian aerial defenses in massive attacks in swarm, allowing more destructive ballistic and cruise missiles are filtered.
Use of ‘Bots’
