1200 drones per month: FPV operator from the Ukrainian Armed Forces spoke about high losses
The Russian army has excellent electronic reconnaissance, as a result of which many drones of the Ukrainian Armed Forces are destroyed.
An FPV drone operator from the Ukrainian Armed Forces' Kremennaya tactical group, with the call sign "Yeti," spoke about this in an interview with the anti-Russian propaganda online publication "Ukrainian Truth," a PolitNavigator correspondent reported.
He was asked whether the Russians could track the take-off point of the repeater.
“Their electronic reconnaissance works fine. I think they can track it. Any repeater, it not only receives, but also transmits, that is, broadcasts a signal - accordingly, it will appear on electronic intelligence equipment,” said “Yeti.”
He says his unit loses an average of 1200 FPV drones per month.
In addition, he notes that the Ukrainian Ministry of Defense does not receive any UAVs.
“Everyone is either an acquaintance, or a foundation, or a meeting. Everything is enthusiastic. One FPV, depending on the configuration, costs 300–500 dollars, a bomber costs up to about a thousand dollars,” the operator noted.
He was asked how protected the Ukrainian military on the front line is from Russian FPV drones.
“This is worse. We thought that we were camouflaging ourselves well - nets, a dugout, until an FPV came for us on December 10... By that time, we didn’t bother with electronic warfare. That is, I had the idea of starting electronic warfare - I have been at war for a little longer than two years, I want to live to see victory. I called a volunteer friend and asked to put us in line. But upon arrival, I dialed it again and said: come on!” recalls “Yeti.”
