‼️🇵🇱🇺🇦 BREAKING - Poland may shoot down drones over Ukraine, but such a decision will be made together with allies, — head of the Polish Ministry of Foreign Affairs "Speaking personally, we should consider establishing a no-drone zone over Ukraine. Technically, NATO and the EU are capable of implementing this, but such a decision can only be made by Poland together with its allies," Sikorski emphasized. ➡️ The minister also emphasized that he disagrees with the statement that Polish air defense was unprepared for the Russian attack. Drones did not reach their targets, property damage was minor, and no one was injured. If this had happened in Ukraine, by Ukrainian standards, it would be considered a 100% success.

$🚨🇺🇸 U.S. IN PANIC: Iran’s Shaheds are already breaking defenses — but China’s drones will be a nightmare Drones are getting cheaper, smarter, and harder to stop. Recent clashes in the Middle East showed how even relatively simple Iranian systems can slip through and damage high-value targets, exposing gaps in US/Israel air defense networks. That battlefield reality is now forcing a harder question, what happens when a more advanced industrial power applies the same logic at scale? China’s ASN-301 represents a different class of threat. Unlike Iran’s Shahed-136, which operates largely as a pre-programmed strike tool, the Chinese system is built to hunt air defenses. It can loiter for hours, detect radar emissions, switch to electro-optical tracking if signals disappear, and receive mid-flight updates via datalink. In effect, it turns the battlefield into a persistent seek-and-destroy environment for radars, the backbone of any modern defense system. Iran relies on volume: cheap, long-range drones launched in waves to exhaust interceptors. China combines that model with precision. Variants like the Feilong-300D push costs even lower while retaining flexibility in payload and targeting, making mass deployment economically viable on an entirely different scale. And this is where the real pressure point emerges. If US systems are already struggling to consistently intercept Iranian drones, the implications are stark. A conflict in the Western Pacific would hinge on production capacity. China’s ability to flood the battlespace with smarter, adaptable drones could force the US and its allies into a costly cycle: burning million-dollar interceptors to stop systems that cost a fraction to produce. The US is facing major difficulties in stopping Iranian drones—do they stand a chance against Chinese drones? NewRulesGeopolitics$

❗️❗️🇺🇦✈️ How Ukraine’s strategic Deep Strike works — strikes at tactical and strategic depth: Preparations for launching Ukrainian long-range drones are conducted under conditions of maximum secrecy. Locations are constantly changed, and access for journalists is strictly limited. Any information leak can cost a unit its life. For this reason, the 14th Regiment — later transformed into the 1st Separate Unmanned Systems Center — has become one of the priority targets for Russian intelligence. The key factor is a strategic approach. The unit does not conduct strikes chaotically or “against everything at once.” Targets are selected within a unified operational concept. In 2024, two large-scale “waves” were carried out: Strikes against artillery arsenals of the Russian Federation; attacks on airbases and aviation infrastructure. Among the targets were Khalino, Savasleyka, Borisoglebsk, and Baltimor. Part of these operations coincided with the Kursk offensive, which significantly amplified the effect: the adversary simultaneously lost logistics, depots, and aviation capabilities.

Amid Irans heavy use of low cost Shahed kamikaze drones and missiles, Gulf states are rapidly depleting their expensive air defense interceptors. Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the United Arab Emirates are now urgently negotiating with South Korea to accelerate deliveries and acquire additional Cheongung II medium range surface to air missile systems. This move highlights growing frustration with delays in United States weapons supplies particularly Patriot missiles whose production has struggled to meet surging global demand. Even close American allies are diversifying their sources to avoid gaps in their defenses. The Cheongung II effectively counters drones cruise missiles and aircraft. The United Arab Emirates has already deployed it in combat against Iranian attacks reporting high interception success rates. It offers a more cost effective alternative to premium United States systems for dealing with mass drone swarms. Saudi Arabia previously signed a major contract for the system and the Gulf states are now pushing for faster delivery of missiles and additional units. The shift reflects a broader reality in modern warfare. Cheap attacking drones are forcing defenders to burn through costly missiles at an unsustainable rate. Gulf countries are also exploring options from the United Kingdom Ukraine and even Japan for Patriot components. This pragmatic diversification shows how battlefield economics are reshaping arms procurement in the Middle East.

Indian Army Strengthens Close Air Support with Prachand Sortie, Apache Firing The Indian Army has reinforced its focus on strengthening close air support for ground operations, a critical element in modern warfare. Chief of the Army Staff General Upendra Dwivedi flew a sortie on the indigenous Light Combat Helicopter Prachand at HAL, Bengaluru yesterday. This was followed by a key operational demonstration today at Pokhran Field Firing Ranges in Rajasthan, where the AH-64 Apache attack helicopter carried out its first field firing, successfully engaging targets with Hellfire missiles and other onboard weapons. The activities showcased how attack helicopters can operate in close coordination with ground troops, even in high-threat environments involving small arms fire, shoulder-fired missiles and drones. These platforms demonstrated rapid target acquisition and precision strike capability, directly supporting manoeuvre on the battlefield. Advanced sensors, fire control systems and real-time data links enabled faster decision-making and immediate action, ensuring that battlefield intelligence was quickly converted into effective strikes. The Apache highlighted its role as a force multiplier by enhancing the reach, lethality and responsiveness of ground forces, while Prachand reflected India’s growing indigenous strength in combat aviation. The demonstrations underline Indian Army’s focus on integrating air and land capabilities to enhance battlefield effectiveness and maintain operational momentum.

In a remote area of Sinaloa, members of La Mayiza showcased an FPV drone equipped with a fiber optic module, claiming it belongs to “La Chapiza.” However, it may be linked to the CJNG–Chapiza alliance, though confirmation is uncertain. The drone, a 10-inch Mark4 V2, uses a fiber optic module for transmission via a thin cable instead of radio frequency, making it resistant to standard electronic countermeasures. While not invincible—shotguns or cable-cutting can disable it—this technology shifts the dynamics of confrontations between cartels and Mexican law enforcement. Initially, the video’s authenticity was questioned, but analysis by specialists (Pernicious Propaganda via X) found no evidence to dispute its legitimacy or that it was filmed in Mexico. This case highlights a trend: cartels are advancing technologically in a decentralized way. Skilled “drone pilots” innovate with advanced platforms like fiber optic-equipped drones, while others use less reliable, rudimentary versions. Such technology has been observed across regions like Veracruz, Guerrero, Michoacán, and Sinaloa, ranging from modified DJI Avata 2 drones to cutting-edge systems.

Unique footage has emerged showing remote control of interceptor drones. The 190th Training Center of the SBS reportedly used a drone-interceptor to shoot down a Shahed UAV remotely, with the pilot located at a significant distance from the launch site. The system used was LITAVR, developed by FDrones. According to the company, an operator can control the interceptor from hundreds of kilometers away from the launch point. The F7 LITAVR is already a well-known and highly effective system. As a reminder, here are the technical details (this is all open-source information): Development of the system began in autumn 2024. It was successfully tested and officially adopted in summer 2025. Serial production and deliveries to the military started in autumn 2025. Maximum speed: 350 km/h Flight time: up to 15 minutes Equipped with two cameras: daytime and thermal imaging The officially stated tactical range is 36 km, though in practice it can reach up to 60 km and operate at altitudes of up to 9.5 km. The warhead (separately codified) weighs 500 g. Detonation can occur via kinetic impact, self-destruction upon contact with the target, or manual activation by the operator. The system uses inertial guidance without GPS and features automatic terminal guidance (“last mile” / target lock system). At present, it reportedly destroys hundreds of targets per week, including Shaheds, Gerberas, Molniyas, Orlans, Lancets, and others. What is fundamentally new? Until now, mobile air defense fire groups and frontline crews using interceptor drones required a qualified pilot on-site. It has now been successfully demonstrated that a different tactic is possible: pilots can operate from protected, remote locations. The only requirement is internet access at both the control center and the launch site. Ukraine’s defense sector continues to develop innovative solutions. 📹 Oleksii Kopytko/Facebook

Slow Progress is the New Reality of Modern Wars There are many people commenting on Russian difficulties and coming up with numerous reasons for their alleged collapse. I absolutely do not see any collapse; on the contrary, Russia has already normalized a state of war in Ukraine, which boosts its economic and industrial growth. The difficulties faced by Russia today are the same as at the beginning of the war, with soldiers having to spend up to half of their initial salaries on their own equipment, delays in pensions, and a series of other problems that are mirrored on the Ukrainian side, even with all the support from allies. The war today is much less lethal than it was months ago, and both Russian and Ukrainian losses have significantly decreased during this phase. Lethality has fallen, but Russian advances persist. And why are they slow? Is it a Ukrainian tactic? No. They are slow because they are accompanied by the deployment of communication infrastructure like signal repeaters for drones, the advancement of artillery guided by drones, maneuvers using FAB and more recently ODAB bombs against Ukrainian drone operators' facilities, infiltration by reconnaissance teams, saboteurs, and a series of protocols they have developed. That conventional war with rapid advances no longer exists, and in the context of a battlefield dominated by drones, it is unlikely to return. Modern wars will have slow progress, as seen in the attacks and counter-attacks of the Russians and Ukrainians in this war. Contemporary military forces are still unable to see this new reality of war. When analyzing the Russian advance, it's important to consider that all these maneuvers take days to unfold, but the point is that the Russians have already adapted to this pace, not bothered whether a particular advance will take 3 weeks or 3 months. They advance continuously following tactical protocols with little threat from Ukrainian forces, which, without new equipment, have had their defensive tactics remain almost unchanged over the past two years, relying mainly on drones and making it easier for Russian studies of countermeasures. And what can Ukraine do in this situation? I see few options, but one would be to delay the Russian advance with a good number of missiles, though personally, I find it unlikely that they will reach Ukrainian hands. It wouldn't have the power to change the balance of the war, but it would guarantee more time, which is important because the battlefield is dynamic, and the implementation of new tactics based on innovative weapons can change everything overnight. A war that seems almost lost today could take a different turn in weeks. Time is crucial for Ukraine, which has fronts only about 130 km from cities like Zaporizhia and Dnipro.

❗️🇺🇦✈️💥🇷🇺 #BreakingNews The Wall Street Journal has revealed new details showing that Operation “Spiderweb” came close to falling apart in its final phase. ▪️ The strike had been under preparation for 18 months and relied on 117 FPV drones. ▪️ It was first scheduled for May 9 (Victory Day), but had to be delayed because the truck drivers assigned to move the cargo got drunk. ▪️ Between May 23 and 26, five trucks loaded with drones departed Chelyabinsk for airfields in Ryazan, Murmansk, Ivanovo, Irkutsk, and the Amur region. ▪️ The trucks were outfitted with solar panels and batteries, and the drones had communications links enabling direct control from Kyiv. Only a very small circle understood the full scope of the mission. ▪️ The plan was jeopardized when the roof of one truck shifted, exposing the drones to the driver. He contacted the transport company owner — a moment that could have unraveled the entire operation. ▪️ SBU officers salvaged the situation with a cover story, telling him the drones were for environmental monitoring. Had he gone to the police, the whole clandestine network inside Russia would likely have been exposed. ▪️ Another scare emerged on June 1 when one of the trucks stopped responding. Coordinators could not determine whether it had been intercepted or had crashed, putting the entire launch timeline at risk. ▪️ Matters worsened when the truck later caught fire; the driver died, and the condition of the cargo was unknown. If the drones had been found, the entire mission could have collapsed, resulting in arrests. ▪️ The operation was run by Ukrainian nationals Artem and Kateryna Tymofieiev, Maidan veterans who had returned to Russia, founded a logistics company, and, under SBU guidance, assembled the drones in a Chelyabinsk warehouse. ▪️ They fled into Kazakhstan five days before the mission began. Their current location has not been disclosed. ▪️ According to SBU figures, the attack damaged 41 Russian aircraft, at least 10 of which were completely destroyed.

$🇺🇦 Ukraine has significantly increased the deployment of its domestically produced electronic warfare system “Lima” both on the front lines and in the deep rear. 🟥 Lima is a Ukrainian-made system that does not destroy drones and missiles, but instead disrupts their navigation and alters their course. 🚀 Effect on missiles: Thanks to Lima, missiles lose satellite navigation, causing their accuracy to degrade by approximately 2 kilometers for every 100 kilometers flown. This means a missile aimed at an infrastructure target can ultimately land in an open field. 💰 Cost: One Lima unit costs up to 3 million hryvnia. Protecting a large city requires 30 to 100 stations — approximately €5 million, which is roughly the price of a single Patriot PAC-3 missile. Where physically destroying every threat is too expensive, it is possible to disrupt their guidance systems and force them to miss targets by a significant margin. 🟥 According to Cascade Systems, the Ukrainian Armed Forces have already received more than 400 Lima complexes. Over the past 18 months, the system has suppressed over 20,500 Shahed-type drones and altered the course of dozens of cruise and ballistic missiles. Lima represents one of Ukraine’s most effective and economical innovations in the war. By redirecting rather than destroying incoming threats, it achieves substantial defensive results at a fraction of the cost of traditional air defense systems. Its mass deployment is playing a major role in reducing the effectiveness of Russian long-range attacks. Video is generated by grok AI$

China Successfully Tests New Hypersonic Missile with 8,000 km Range The Chinese have successfully tested a variant of a hypersonic missile, which is actually a glide vehicle: the DF-27A. The average speed was Mach 8.6, and it covered 2,100 km in 12 minutes. This is just one more in a series of several Chinese anti-ship missiles. While much of the West treats military service as an economic activity, the Chinese are preparing for a real war. There is no room there for playing around with a new class of battleships or listening to the lobby for expensive energy. China has a national industrial and military project that Western nations currently can only dream of achieving. Of course, it's part of the Western style to live life differently. But there is a serious missile gap, with China far ahead of the West. An 8,000 km range means hitting a ship in Hawaii without leaving mainland China. And there are other missile models with ranges of 3,000–4,000 km. Intercepting these hypersonic missiles once launched is extremely difficult, but what can be done is to prevent them from having precise guidance capability. Just as land doctrines are being redesigned, so is naval warfare, by hypersonic missiles and aerial and underwater drones. Projects are now underway for drones capable of bypassing protective nets. Today, the Chinese have more missiles in stock than the Soviets had at their peak. And I won't even mention drones, as the numbers are almost unimaginable. Only a major reform could improve the West’s position. The West is currently developing some missile systems that should be available around 2030, but a doctrinal reform is also necessary. Countries cannot fight in 2025 the same way wars were fought decades ago; a complete reform is required. This reminds me of Ukrainian soldiers who, after being trained in the West and then facing the reality of the battlefield, said that the training was completely inadequate for the kind of war they were actually fighting. It is precisely to avoid this kind of mismatch that reforms need to be carried out. *Illustrative video- may contain inaccuracies.*

$JUST IN: Iran gave Russia its Shahed drones. Russia improved them in Ukraine. Now Western intelligence says Russia is shipping the upgraded versions back to Iran. And the country that learned how to kill those drones on the battlefield just sent 228 experts to the Gulf to teach five countries how to do the same thing. The full circle is extraordinary. Iran supplied thousands of Shahed-136 kamikaze drones to Russia starting in 2022 for use against Ukraine. Russia rebranded them Geran-2 and, over three years of combat, upgraded the navigation systems, added anti-jamming capabilities, improved the engines, and refined the payload delivery. The Financial Times and AP reported on March 26 citing Western intelligence that Russia is now in the final stages of shipping those upgraded Geran-2 drones back to Iran’s IRGC, along with medicine and food supplies. Kremlin spokesman Peskov called the reports “lies” and “fake news dumps.” Meanwhile, Zelensky arrived in Saudi Arabia on March 26 for an unannounced visit, met Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, signed a defense cooperation deal focused on air defense and drone expertise, and departed Jeddah on March 28. Ukraine has deployed 201 to 228 military drone specialists to five Gulf and Middle Eastern countries: the UAE, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, and Jordan. Another 34 are ready per Zelensky’s statement on March 17. These specialists are not there as a symbolic gesture. They bring the single most effective counter to Shahed drones that exists anywhere on earth. Ukraine developed FPV interceptor drones that account for roughly 70 percent of all Shahed and Geran-2 shootdowns in Ukraine per Forces News and Atlantic Council reporting. The method: radar and acoustic sensors detect the incoming drone at 20 to 50 kilometres. A cheap, fast quadcopter or fixed-wing interceptor launches from a mobile platform. An operator pilots it at high speed toward the target. It destroys the Shahed through kamikaze collision or a small explosive payload on impact. Cost per intercept: a fraction of what a surface-to-air missile costs. Militarnyi reported on March 22 that Ukrainian teams have already confirmed multiple Shahed shootdowns in the Middle East. The arms race running through this war is now a closed loop. Iran builds the drone. Russia tests it, improves it, and allegedly sends the improved version back. Ukraine learns to kill it through three years of battlefield iteration. Ukraine exports that knowledge to the Gulf states Iran is attacking. The Gulf states pay Ukraine in money, technology, and diplomatic support. Russia denies everything while the drones fly in both directions. This is not a bilateral conflict. It is a global drone ecosystem where every improvement by one side is studied, countered, and re-exported by the other. The Shahed that hits a refinery in Bahrain tonight may carry Russian-upgraded navigation. The interceptor that destroys it may be piloted by a Ukrainian operator trained in Zaporizhzhia. The defense deal that funded the deployment was signed in Jeddah while the war it was designed to address raged 1,500 kilometres to the northeast. SpaceX’s Starlink provides the communications backbone for these teams in contested environments where terrestrial networks are degraded by the same war. The same helium shortage threatening semiconductor fabs and quantum computers is threatening the rocket launches that put Starlink satellites in orbit. The same strait carrying the oil carries the data cables that the drones are trying to protect. Every domain connects through the same 39 kilometres of water. Full analysis -$

Today, we are working in Denmark at the European Political Community Summit. I began our work by meeting with Prime Minister of Denmark Mette Frederiksen Statsministeriet. The recent incursions into the airspace of Denmark, Poland, Romania, Norway, and Estonia were a key focus. Russia is escalating, and we discussed how we can respond to these threats. We have repeatedly proposed creating a joint, integrated air defense system. The expertise of Ukrainian professionals and Ukrainian technologies must become an important part of the EU’s Drone Wall initiative. Right now, a strong group of Ukrainian servicemembers is in Denmark, helping Danish colleagues. We also discussed the implementation of the PURL initiative and Denmark’s further participation in this program. We value Denmark’s contribution of €90 million. I am grateful to Denmark for a military aid package of more than €360 million to support Ukrainian production under the Danish model. I thank Prime Minister Frederiksen and the people of Denmark for their strong support. 🇺🇦 🇩🇰

🚨🇷🇺 NATO IN PANIC: RUSSIA TURNS SU-57 INTO LONG-RANGE DRONE HUNTER Russia’s top fighter may now be part of a wider shield against long-range drone and missile strikes. New photos from Akhtubinsk show a Su-57 Felon carrying external R-73 missiles and an unidentified targeting pod — pointing to a new role against long-range drones and cruise missiles threatening targets deep inside Russia. Here’s why this matters: 🔸 STRATEGIC ADAPTATION: The Su-57 demonstrates versatility by shifting to defensive missions, effectively protecting Russian airspace with its advanced systems against evolving Ukrainian long-range threats. 🔸 OPTIMIZED LOADOUT: External carriage of R-73/R-74 missiles enables rapid close-range engagements suited for slow, low-altitude drones and cruise missiles, utilizing proven short-range capabilities. 🔸 ADVANCED SENSOR SUITE: The N036 multi-array AESA radar combined with the 101KS electro-optical and IRST systems delivers superior detection and tracking of low-signature targets, enhancing counter-drone performance. 🔸 MULTI-LAYERED DEFENSE: Integrating Su-57 capabilities alongside S-400 batteries, Pantsir systems, and alert fighters provides a comprehensive response to deep strikes, maintaining robust protection over vast Russian territory. Do you think the Su-57 can help Russia counter long-range drone and cruise missile attacks?

I recently read an interesting article by a journalist and one of the founders of the Babel online outlet, Hlib Husiev, who spent three days with the group that created the "Horynych" drone. Main points: ◾️ The Horynych drone is a modified French Skyranger ultralight aircraft. Ukrainian engineers and light aircraft enthusiasts have turned it into a formidable weapon. They removed the pilot's seat from the Skyranger, added an auxiliary fuel tank, batteries, navigation and communications systems, and hardpoints for munitions. Horynych gained the ability to carry OFAB-100-120 fragmentation-high-explosive aerial bombs (about 40 kg of explosives) or the more powerful OFAB-250 (100 kg of explosives), as well as 120-mm mortar bombs. The drone's hit precision reaches one meter, and its flight range is up to one thousand kilometers. The uniqueness of Horynych lies in its ability to navigate through GPS-spoofed zones and evade Russian air defense systems such as the Pantsir-S1, Buk, and S-300. It can return and land autonomously. ◾️ For two years now, the group led by the commander with the callsign "Horynych" has been striking strategic targets in Russia. He does not disclose his real name for security reasons. Before the full-scale invasion, "Horynych" worked in a business far removed from war; during the pandemic, he became interested in light aircraft and obtained a pilot's license. In spring 2022, he volunteered for the front, served in the territorial defense, then in the Special Operations Forces, and later moved to the 14th UAS Regiment. His unit is now focused on strategic drone strikes with ranges of up to several hundred kilometers. The drone was named after his callsign. ◾️ The "Horynych" group was able to create an unmanned aircraft for deep strikes and carry out successful missions thanks to many factors: from administrative backing and freedom of action granted by the commander to intelligence and special equipment from partner countries. The entire group is made up of light aircraft enthusiasts. The drone's missions are not disclosed. What can be seen, however, is their result: burning Russian strategic infrastructure. For "Horynych's" operations in 2023-2024, members of the regiment have already been awarded two Orders of Bohdan Khmelnytskyi. The "Horynych" operations themselves are complex, multi-stage missions. First, reconnaissance drones are launched to identify air defense positions and signals intelligence stations. Then come decoy drones that distract the attention of the air defense systems. Strike drones, such as the AN-196 Liutyi, attack EW systems, creating a 'corridor' for the Horynych. Only after that does the bomber drone set off for its target, covering hundreds of kilometers. Thus, on the night of October 6, Horynych flew about a thousand kilometers, dropped two 120-mm mortar bombs and an OFAB-100-120 on the Yakov Sverdlov factory in Russian Dzerzhinsk (near Nizhny Novgorod), and then dove kamikaze-style onto the target. At that enterprise, the Russians produce explosives and fill FAB bombs for aircraft with them. A few hours later, a second drone repeated the attack, and the next day, another seven Horynych drones completed the mission. Such strikes inflict serious damage on Russia's military-industrial complex - on factories, arsenals, and facilities of the oil and gas complex. "Horynych" himself estimates the total losses inflicted on the occupiers at between $3 and $5 billion. Full article is available here:
