Fighters discovered a Russian "waiter" drone on fiber optic cable installed on one of the logistics routes. Since the Ukrainians approached in such a way that the enemy operator did not see them, the fighters cut the fiber optic cable and dismantled the combat part for further study. There are more and more of these drones.

With the surging costs and sudden scarcity of fiber optic coils, Ukrainian fiber FPV use will need to be limited to missions that radio FPVs cannot perform. Killing a single Russian with a fiber optic FPV as in the video will no longer be cost-effective. 1/
