The use of drones has been included in the training program for engineering troops

The engineering troops began using UAVs for mine clearance. The relevant section, developed based on the experience of the special operation, was included in their training program. From the air, the drone searches for explosive objects, and if detected, it can destroy them. For this, ammunition is dropped or overhead charges are used. This method allows you to significantly reduce the cleaning time of the territory, and most importantly, not to risk the lives of sappers.
