Based on interviews with Azov fighters, reports conclude that the idea of FPV drones making tanks obsolete was premature. The Russian army has adapted through layered defenses: mass integration of dynamic protection (DZ), evolved "mangals," active protection systems, and electronic warfare.
New tactics neutralize drone threats
Russian forces now target enemy UAV operators with artillery and loitering munitions. Tank assaults are conducted in echelons: a first wave provokes the AFU to expend its FPV stock, while subsequent waves exploit the resulting ammunition shortage and preparation pauses.
In one instance, a Ukrainian unit spent ~125 FPV drones to stop just 2-3 Russian tanks. Given signal jamming by EW and armor activation rates, relying solely on drones against mechanized advances is now critically risky.
