Points of attention

  • Ukrainian intelligence is capable of hitting military targets at a distance of 2,000 kilometers with the help of long-range drones.
  • Drone training includes analysis of targets, enemy anti-aircraft and electronic warfare capabilities.
  • GUR shock drones have already undergone major changes, capable of hitting targets at a distance of up to 2,000 km.
  • The attack on an oil depot in the Kaluga region of the Russian Federation was carried out by long-range kamikaze drones, causing a series of explosions and a fire.

What is known about the long-range drones with which GUR attacks the military facilities of the Russian Federation

According to the GUR, among the stages of preparation of long-range unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs):

  • analysis of the target and the approach to them;

  • analysis of enemy anti-aircraft defenses (ADF), as well as means of radio-electronic warfare;

It has been extremely difficult to do this for the last year, but it still works, said the commander of the group of long-range UAV operators of the GUR of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine.

In general, since the beginning of a full-scale war, the use of attack UAVs has undergone serious changes.

We are the group that was the first to launch almost all long-range drones and those that came before them. We can see the dynamics — now we can hit targets at 2,000 km, — said the unnamed commander of the group of long-range UAV operators of the GUR of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine.
