'Every hunter is hunted': How drones in Ukraine forever changed war | Defence in Depth

In recent years a new threat has emerged from above that should get all of us, soldiers especially, looking up: drones. Particularly tactical FPV drones.

In the ‘old’ days of, say, the first decade of this century, drones could basically do two things: watch stuff on the ground in real time and drop a bomb if required. They were called things like Predator, Reaper and Global Hawk as if having a really beefy name hid the fact they were extremely vulnerable to modern air defence systems.

But they weren’t expected to operate against modern air defence systems.

In this episode of Defence in Depth, Dominic Nicholls, The Telegraph’s associate editor, explains the rapid developments in drone warfare and what this means for the battlefield, military planners, future conflicts and Ukraine.
