Ukraine’s engineers have begun testing the deadliest tool in modern warfare: drone swarms powered by advanced AI “brains” that are designed to seek and destroy. Imagine a frontline where these autonomous weapons make split-second targeting decisions, adapting in real-time. For those watching, it’s a prototype—an introduction. For those on...

Heard someone who is very experienced & training on the ground in Ukraine say drones & how they're being used aren't really that big of a game changer in modern warfare? I'm just a knucklehead on Twitter but as a common observer sure looks like BIG changes to me?

😁 I would disagree with that person. But anyway, the war has never seen an AI swarm before

Isn’t Ukraine leading in production of drones? Worldwide?

Hopefully this will not change

The drone game has already changed so much, we went from seeing lone drones doing solitary drops or the occasional fpv, but now you regularly see footage of operations with multiple drones airborne over a target simultaneously. It will keep on evolving at an even quicker pace.

NATO, are you interested to keep up with Ukraine? @SecGenNATO Invite Ukraine to NATO. Now.

that will become the over accurate and intelligent version of cluster bombs. imagine unleashing a bunch of drones which can drop submunitions after locating moving targets in an area. It is going to be terrifying - both sides.

Amazing 🤩 How brilliant the Ukraine engineers are. Slava Ukraine 🇺🇦 ✌️

As we told the developer previously this is going to need some serious freind or foe coding added, or its going to be chaos for friendlies in the vicinity!

🚨🇺🇦 UKRAINE IS TURNING AI INTO THE UPPER HAND: DRONES, SNIPER TECH, AND ALGORITHMIC WARFARE In the rolling fields of eastern Ukraine, a soldier peers through the scope of a rifle pointed at a target 2 and a half miles away. At that distance, even the Earth’s curve starts to matter. In older wars, this kind of shot would have been impossible - mythical even. But when the trigger is pulled, the impossible happens: a bullet arcs through the air and finds its mark. A new world record. The secret wasn’t just the shooter’s steady hand. It was an alliance of man, machine, and math - AI-powered optics calculating wind, humidity, and drop, while a drone overhead fed real-time telemetry into the rifle’s brain. That single shot is the metaphor for Ukraine’s entire war. Russia has the size - tanks, jets, bodies to burn. Ukraine has the brains - algorithms, drones, precision. Ukraine’s Unmanned Systems Forces isn’t a sideshow. It’s a whole new branch of the military, running swarms of drones that hit tens of thousands of Russian targets every month. Some drones distract, others jam, and the killers dive last. AI makes this possible. Drones fly beyond line-of-sight, reroute around jammers, and finish missions even when cut off from human pilots. That’s how Ukrainian drones just lit up Russia’s Saratov oil refinery, slicing into Moscow’s fuel supply lines. Earlier this month, AI-guided strikes crippled Ryazan and Novokuibyshevsk refineries - knocking them offline for weeks and cutting Russia’s war machine at the knees. Behind the frontline is Brave1, Ukraine’s innovation engine. It takes battlefield requests - “make a drone that can dodge jammers” - and spits out prototypes in months, not years. Think Silicon Valley, but instead of apps, the product is software-guided kamikaze drones that can fly 600 km deep into Russia. Even NATO defense startups are plugging into this ecosystem, testing autonomous drones in Ukraine’s skies like it’s the world’s deadliest beta test. Every mission trains the algorithms, making the next strike smarter and sharper. Russia wanted a war of numbers. Ukraine made it a war of code. And in that fight, Moscow’s massive army looks like a dinosaur charging headfirst into a digital age. Sources: Reuters, BBC, Kyiv Independent, Politico

🇺🇸 MEET X-BAT: AMERICA’S NEW AI-POWERED FIGHTER JET WITH NO PILOT Shield AI just unveiled the X-Bat, a next-gen fighter jet that flies itself, takes off like a helicopter, and doesn’t need a runway. It’s powered by Hivemind, their custom AI pilot, and can fly 2,000 miles, reach 50,000 feet, and pack missiles. It’s built for combat, can launch from a ship in the middle of nowhere, and costs just $27 million, compared to the $100M+ F-35. The X-Bat reflects a fast-growing trend in warfare: AI-driven drones taking the lead. In Ukraine, drones have become central to modern combat, shifting the way battles are fought. Drone expert and senior aviation lecturer at UNSW Canberra, Oleksandra Molloy: “What we see from the war in Ukraine and the Middle East, they are tactically, operationally and strategically absolutely important weapons. We have seen a lack of those systems from the U.S., and particularly, we have not really seen the presence of many American companies in the real battlefield.” The U.S. government is now racing to catch up. In June, Trump signed an executive order called Unleashing American Drone Dominance, designed to fast-track drone commercialization and fold AI-powered aircraft into U.S. airspace - with billions from the Big Beautiful Bill fueling unmanned and AI defense tech. Shield AI is aiming to disrupt the defense giants and already landed a $200M Coast Guard deal. Backed by $5.3B in funding and a nudge from Trump’s Drone Dominance order, Shield AI says it’s building the future of war. Source: CNBC

🚨🇺🇦 INSIDE BRAVE1: UKRAINE’S SECRET WEAPON ISN’T A MISSILE, IT’S A STARTUP CULTURE FOR WAR Forget Silicon Valley. Ukraine built something harder, faster, and meaner: Brave1 - a government-backed innovation hub that cranks out battlefield tech like a factory line. Not in 5 years. Not in 5 months. Sometimes in 5 weeks. Here’s how it works: A commander at the front says: “We need drones that can see through smoke and dodge Russian jammers.” Brave1 taps a swarm of coders, engineers, and defense geeks. Prototypes are tested in real combat. What works scales. What doesn’t? Scrap it and try again. No red tape. No endless procurement papers. Just build, test, repeat. The result is a pipeline of high-tech weapons that look more like science projects than traditional arms. AI-powered kamikaze drones that hunt oil refineries 600 km away. Loitering munitions that choose the best target if the pilot loses connection. Drone swarms that confuse Russian air defenses before the real killers dive. Even autonomous ground bots can scout trenches or drop explosives. This isn’t just gear. It’s a system. It’s why Ukraine has been able to cripple Russia’s refineries, sink ships in the Black Sea, and now set the world record for the longest sniper shot ever -thanks to AI-powered optics tested under Brave1’s umbrella. Brave1 is war R&D at startup speed. And it’s rewriting how wars are fought. Russia still fights like it’s 1935: tanks, artillery, mass. Ukraine fights like it’s 2035: drones, data, AI. The future of warfare isn’t built in Pentagon labs. It’s being built in Kyiv basements under blackout sirens, uploaded to drones, and sent screaming toward Russian oil fields.

Dr. Dmitri Trenin: ‘Russia🇷🇺 is waging a long war in Ukraine🇺🇦…victory over Ukrainian descendants of HITLERISM and Europe’s elites will take a long time.’ ‘Russia’s policies and the principal goals of the special military operation, will take, I would say a long time to accomplish. It means that although the operation itself in a limited form, will succeed, I’m pretty sure that victory will be ours. But beyond that, Russia will face a hostile Europe. It will face elements within Ukraine that will be outside of Russian control that will try to do as much harm to Russia as they can. So it’s going to be a long slog. It’s a long war that Russia is waging today. And it’s not like next year or in two years time, there’ll be peace and Russians and Europeans will celebrate together as they did for a long time, after the end of the Cold War. It’s going to take so much more time and it will take so much more effort on our side to reach the goal and to achieve victory. But as I said, victory will be ours. But it doesn’t mean that it will be victory over Europe or over Ukraine. It will be a victory against those elements in Ukraine that are branded Nazi, meaning ultra-nationalist and ideological descendants of Hitlerism… And those forces in Europe, primarily among the elites that have built Russia into a bogeyman again and that use the Russia threat for their own ulterior motives.’ -Dr. Dmitri Trenin, Member of Russia’s Foreign and Defence Policy Council, on Going Underground, as Russia celebrates Victory Day Watch the full interview in the quoted post below👇
