In September, the Armed Forces of Ukraine's drones hit 10.8% more enemy targets than in August. The Commander-in-Chief of the Armed Forces of Ukraine Oleksandr Syrskyi announced this on Facebook, the Ukrainian News agency reports.
"In September, our unmanned aerial systems hit 66,500 enemy targets, which is 10.8% more than in August. Kamikaze drones accounted for 39,200 of them. At the same time, 18,159 servicemen of the occupation army were injured or destroyed (+23% compared to the previous month)," he said.
Syrskyi also noted that the number of tasks performed by robotic ground systems has almost doubled, which indicates an increase in the attention of commanders to this important component of unmanned systems.
According to him, the advantage in the use of FPV continues to be in favor of Ukraine, although the enemy is doing everything to get closer to parity.
Syrskyi noted that the Armed Forces of Ukraine continue to scale up the units of the Unmanned Systems Forces, and a recruitment campaign for the Unmanned Systems Forces units is underway.
He emphasized that unmanned systems will continue to receive his priority assistance.
As the Ukrainian News agency earlier reported, Syrskyi said that due to the drone and missile threat, training centers are moving inland.
In early October, Syrskyi ordered strengthening air defense in the frontline regions and on the border.
