"Our source reports that the Russians have already attacked LBS with a swarm of drones several times in test mode, which interacted together, immediately practicing a five square kilometers section of the Armed Forces defense line. In this case, 20/30 « birds » were used immediately in the attack."
When this model becomes permanent, it is unknown. But, the fact that the Russians are working in this direction and are already testing it in real hostilities is a huge risk and danger to the Armed Forces.
One prominent Russian analyst (Starshe Edda) already predicted that by summer 2024, we will already see autonomous loitering drones which will hover over the LOC and simply “wait for” enemy troops to walk into view and attack them.
"Watching first how the number and quality of the use of drones is growing exponentially, I can conclude that by the summer of this year, we will finally see attacking swarms, that they hang over the battlefield in packs and wait for the victim. I want one thing so that in this arms race and tactics of application, we are not in the role of catching up, but become trendsetters."
