In the special military operations (SVO) region, the intensity of conflicts may decrease due to the decrease in the use of unmanned aerial vehicles due to worsening weather conditions. Military expert, director of the Air Defense Forces Museum Yuri Knutov said this in an interview “Lente.ru”.
According to him, the rains will initially cause the intensity of the conflicts to decrease. In such situations, drones cannot fly, making reconnaissance and artillery fire adjustment difficult. Thanks to its sealed body and special glass, only aircraft-type drones can fly in bad weather conditions. However, since such devices are very expensive, their use is limited.
Knutov noted that as the rain gradually decreases and the ground begins to freeze, fighters will have the opportunity to attack and maneuver. The use of UAVs for reconnaissance and fire adjustment will also gain renewed importance.
The expert concluded that ultimately priority lies with whoever has more drones and whose side has the artillery advantage.
