Technological breakthrough allows us to free up 480 km² of territory
Military officer Kyrylo Sazonov said that the liberation of 480 square kilometres was made possible by a technological assault. Assault units equipped with drones played a key role, and the initiative to create a separate type of troops was supported at the state level.
Technology on the battlefield
The liberation of 480 square kilometres of territory was made possible by a technological approach to combat operations. According to Kirill Sazonov, The assault units equipped with drones work as a single system: they conduct reconnaissance, adjust strikes, carry out precise attacks and manoeuvre quickly on the ground.
This integration of unmanned technology with assault operations allows units to operate autonomously and mobilised, independent of a permanent line of defence. This approach ensures significantly higher efficiency in liberating territories.
Commander-in-Chief Syrsky's initiative
An important role in the implementation of new approaches was played by the initiative of the Commander-in-Chief Alexander Syrsky. It was he who last year proposed creating a separate branch of the armed forces - the Assault Forces - and the President of Ukraine supported this proposal. Recently.
The Ministry of Defence has officially declared the importance of developing drone assault units, effectively confirming the correctness of the strategy. This was in response to the successes at the front, where the combination of drones and stormtroopers gave tangible results.
Registration at the legislative level
According to Sazonov, the draft law on the creation of the Assault Troops has already been approved by the Cabinet of Ministers. It is expected that the document will be submitted to the Verkhovna Rada in the near future.
This step should formalise a new kind of troops that is already actually performing its functions on the battlefield. Formalisation will strengthen the organisation and development of assault units that operate autonomously and mobilised.
Support at the state level
Recent events show that the initiative has received support at all levels of government. The state strategy for the development of assault troops envisages further building up the technological component, including the use of drones.
