Ukraine Captures Russian Fiber Optic Drone
In March, Ukraine captured a Russian fiber optic drone, which was still classified as a prototype at the time.
The drone’s capture has raised concerns about Russia’s military capabilities and the potential for the technology to be used in future conflicts.
Development and Production
The Russian military Telegram channel “Siberian Army” claims that the fiber optic drone was developed by the Ushkuynik scientific and production center in Novgorod.
The drone is reportedly known as the “Prince Vandal of Novgorod.”
Ukrainian Response and German Involvement
Ukrainian developers are reportedly working on a similar design to counter the Russian fiber optic drone.
German company Highcat demonstrated its HMX fiber optic drone in Ukraine this month, potentially offering an alternative to the Russian technology.
