At the same time, the Ukrainian Armed Forces’ unmanned aerial vehicles operate at altitudes of up to 500 meters and are thus being replaced by Russian unmanned aerial vehicles with longer range, better software, which can go up to two thousand meters and can evade electronic warfare (EW) systems.

Also in the publication it is written that the Russian army is better than the Ukrainian army in terms of supplies. Therefore, some units of the Ukrainian Armed Forces have been waiting for several months to receive the promised weapons, while others are only 60% equipped, the newspaper noted.
