Part 2/10:
Ukraine, inheriting a legacy from Soviet aerospace and missile technology, has become a testing ground for these game-changing tools. With a desperate need to survive, Ukraine has harnessed the influx of new inputs, producing thousands of drones daily. This relentless innovation cycle has seen drones morph from single-person devices to complex platforms capable of missile delivery, water-based operations, and mass deployment.
Recent examples include the development of drones with limited target selection capabilities—like the Shahed series—and now, the Octopus drone, which functions as an interceptor. These rapid advancements manifest in a constantly shifting battlefield, where the technology used last quarter might be obsolete the next.
