Drone Wars Drones in Combat: Ukrainian Pilots Speak Out
In this gripping episode of Drone Wars, we sit down with two incredible Ukrainian pilots—one of the country's top trainers, having trained over 5,000 pilots, and another, an elite combat pilot. They share their firsthand experiences from the front lines, where drone warfare is evolving in real time.
We discuss:
- The critical mistakes NATO and the U.S. are making in their approach to Ukraine's drone war.
- Why reliance on GPS in modern warfare is a fatal flaw.
- The rapid adaptability of drone operators and why they are not in a "safe" profession.
- How North Korean troops fighting in Ukraine could change the balance of power in East Asia.
- The role of technology and why immediate, full-scale support is crucial to Ukraine’s survival.
This is a must-listen for defense policymakers, military strategists, and anyone interested in the future of warfare.
