The relentless drone warfare in the Ukraine-Russian War continues to escalate, offering a grim glimpse into the future of conflict. Recent footage reveals the devastating effectiveness of Ukrainian FPV (First Person View) drones, targeting Russian troops and equipment in various operations. From ambushes on advancing armored columns to pinpoint strikes on key personnel, these small, agile aircraft are reshaping the battlefield. While some videos highlight the tactical use of drones to disrupt Russian offensives, others raise concerns about the escalating nature of the conflict, including unsubstantiated claims of Russian general casualties and the alleged involvement of North Korean soldiers. As a veteran of both Iraq and Afghanistan, I’ve seen firsthand the evolving role of technology in warfare. The use of drones in Ukraine, however, represents a significant leap forward, demonstrating the potential for these platforms to become decisive factors in modern conflicts. The videos we’ll analyze below offer a raw, unfiltered look at this new reality of war.
Ukrainian FPV drones are effectively targeting Russian troops, armored vehicles, and even potentially high-ranking officers. One video describes the destruction of a "turtle tank" – a heavily armored tank designed to resist drone attacks.
Drone warfare is playing an increasingly crucial role in the conflict, with both sides adapting their tactics and equipment. Ukrainian forces are using drones for reconnaissance, targeting, and direct attacks, while Russian forces are attempting to develop countermeasures.
The conflict is marked by intense fighting in areas like Siversk and Avdiivka, with videos depicting fierce clashes and substantial losses on both sides. One video claims the arrest of Russian generals due to battlefield failures.

There are unconfirmed reports of North Korean soldiers fighting alongside Russian troops. One video alleges a large-scale engagement involving North Korean and Russian forces.
International involvement in the drone war is growing, with countries like the UK, Canada, and Germany providing funding and support to Ukraine’s drone program.
The increasing reliance on drone warfare in Ukraine suggests a broader trend in modern conflict. The accessibility and affordability of drone technology are lowering the barrier to entry for both state and non-state actors, potentially leading to a proliferation of drone warfare in future conflicts. The footage analyzed here highlights the effectiveness of FPV drones in asymmetrical warfare, allowing smaller forces to inflict significant damage on larger, more conventional armies. We are also seeing a rapid evolution in tactics and countermeasures, with both sides constantly adapting to the changing dynamics of the drone battlefield. In the coming weeks, expect to see continued development of drone technology, with improvements in range, payload capacity, and autonomous capabilities. The use of electronic warfare and anti-drone systems will also likely intensify as both sides seek to gain an advantage in this crucial domain.
The videos examined offer a stark and often disturbing window into the reality of drone warfare in Ukraine. They underscore the evolving nature of conflict and the growing importance of unmanned systems on the modern battlefield. The claims made in some videos, particularly regarding the involvement of North Korean troops and the scale of casualties, warrant further investigation and verification. While propaganda and misinformation are rampant in this digital age, the raw footage provides valuable insights into the tactical and strategic implications of drone technology.

A little-known fact: While drones are playing a dominant role in the current conflict, Ukraine has a long history of aviation innovation. Antonov, a Ukrainian aircraft manufacturer, designed and built the An-225 Mriya, the largest and heaviest cargo aircraft ever built, destroyed by Russian forces in 2022.

Horrible! Ukrainian FPV drones blow up Russian generals and troops trying to advance in heavy battle
Russia has lost its eighth general who was notorious for running a torture camp for disobedient soldiers in Ukraine. Major-General Pavel Klimenko, 47, was riding a motorbike when he was hit near the Ukrainian town of Krasnohorivka, according to reports. The commander had been inspecting military checkpoints and observation positions when he and his group came under attack by drones, and reports today said that he is the eighth Russian general to have gone missing in the war, but the actual number is thought to be even higher, early last year Japanese intelligence suggested the tally was 20-plus.

Today, there is a lot of news from the Siversk direction.
Here, under mounting pressure to achieve promised results, Russian commanders launched a desperate final wave of armored vehicles to breach the Ukrainian stronghold around Ivano-Darivka. However, this move ended in such a disaster, that the Russian generals were arrested and the whole Russian Siversk offensive was completely canceled.
After initial Russian attempts to storm the Ukrainian defensive positions on the hill ridge above Ivano-Darivka from the south led to heavy losses, Russian forces changed the vector of their attack to the north-east of the village, using the Lysychansk Oil Refinery as an operational base to gather forces but again with no success. This renewed failure caused a backlash in Russian media with prominent military analysts putting local commanders under heavy criticism and requesting their dismissal.
With everything on the line, the responsible Russian command staff in the region launched another wave of assaults in a desperate attempt to achieve some results, save their public image, and rescue their military careers. The new assault wave consisted of a turtle tank, multiple tanks equipped with smaller cages against FPV drones, and multiple infantry fighting vehicles. These vehicles used again the dirt road from the oil refinery to reach Ukrainian positions quickly, shortening reaction time for the defenders.
Drone operators from the 4th Rapid Reaction Brigade Rubizh of the National Guard of Ukraine have released a video showcasing the strength and preparedness of their regional defenses. The footage emphasizes the critical role of early detection in successfully repelling enemy assaults. Typically, drone reconnaissance units conduct continuous day and night surveillance across every sector of the frontline. This persistent monitoring prevents surprise attacks and ensures swift, decisive reactions, an essential factor in maintaining effective defense.
Leading the Russian column was a heavily fortified “turtle tank,” outfitted with solid metal plating, additional protective cages, and electronic warfare systems, all designed to ensure its progress to breach Ukrainian defenses. Images reveal the moment a Ukrainian FPV drone struck the tank; despite being shrouded in smoke from the explosion, it pressed onward. The footage then shifts to the perspective of a kamikaze drone, bypassing the next tank in the column to focus on targeting the third vehicle. This tactic aimed to maximize disruption and chaos within the Russian assault group, effectively hindering their advance.
The turtle tank and the second tank pressed forward alone, leaving the rest of the convoy behind. Ukrainian drone operators quickly deployed additional FPV drones, inflicting further damage on the turtle tank and eventually bringing it to a halt. This forced the crew of the second tank to change direction, turning it sideways—a risky maneuver that soon proved disastrous as Ukrainian forces enhanced the dense minefields in the area. As a result, the second tank struck a mine and erupted in a spectacular explosion. Moments later, another tank advancing from the rear met a similar fate, exploding after being hit by a drone strike.
The Ukrainians then focused on the rear of the column, launching simultaneous drone strikes that highlighted their operators’ skill and the Russian convoy’s unpreparedness. In the video’s final moments, they showcased the destruction of the remaining enemy vehicles, including the abandoned turtle tank.
Following this third major setback, outcries from Russian military bloggers grew so intense that the Russian Ministry of Defense was compelled to arrest and remove several high-ranking officers within the 3rd Combined Arms Army overseeing this sector of the frontline. Among those dismissed were the army’s commander, the chief of staff, and the commander of the 7th Motorized Rifle Brigade. They were charged with submitting false reports to their superiors and orchestrating poorly conceived assaults near Siversk. This series of failures resulted in hundreds of Russian casualties, with many wounded soldiers dying on the battlefield without evacuation, while Ukrainian strongholds remained intact and their defenders with no losses.
Sources within the Russian military revealed that authorities also removed the commanders of several unnamed battalions and are investigating the…
