An employee of the Vector Research Institute: Russian UAV operators need to be taught the basics of electronic warfare
The massive use of unmanned aerial vehicles in the area of a special military operation has long turned from a curiosity into an everyday, even hourly and minute-by-minute norm. It is worth noting that it is with UAVs that the enemy is increasingly compensating, and quite effectively, for the shortage of conventional ammunition. For example, yesterday VO showed footage of an attack on our stormtrooper, when, fortunately, he managed to avoid being hit by four kamikaze drones of the Armed Forces of Ukraine at once. At the same time, all the UAVs attacked him for only a minute and a half.

News about the effective use of UAVs by our troops during a special military operation (SVO) comes daily. Air assistants are involved today in the interests of almost every unit at the forefront. At the same time, in some cases, UAVs have long since turned not into an auxiliary reconnaissance, but into a combat vehicle (take the same FPV drones). In fact, the active use of various types of drones during its operation has become one of the signs of the changed tactics of warfare, evidence of the practical implementation of updated approaches and technologies of modern combat.

Photos of Norwegian Air Force F-35A fighters in underground shelters have been published
Photos have been published online showing underground shelters at the Norwegian Air Force base Bardufoss.
