FPV drones

A Ukrainian FPV drone struck a column of Russian soldiers travelling on motorcycles along the front line, according to a war-tracking report. Footage and reports of such strikes continue to circulate as both sides increasingly use cheap drones and light vehicles like motorcycles to evade detection. The exact location and casualty figures were not disclosed.

Remote Reaper, a combat simulator based on Ukrainian FPV drone warfare, has reached version 1.0 on Steam. The game stands out for modelling real-world conditions, including electronic warfare jamming that can cut the link between pilot and drone, and accurate weak spots on vehicles that players must strike. It reflects how quickly battlefield drone tactics from the war in Ukraine have crossed over into gaming.

Combat footage circulating online shows a Ukrainian FPV drone attempting to shoot down a Russian Mi-28 attack helicopter during the war in Ukraine. The clip is being shared across social media and war-tracking channels, drawing attention to the growing use of cheap drones against expensive Russian aircraft. Viewers are debating whether the drone hit its target and what such attacks mean for helicopter operations on the front line.
