Russia has expanded its drone launch infrastructure near the Ukrainian border, deploying new jet-powered Geran-3, Geran-4, and Geran-5 drones for strikes on Ukraine.
Satellite images reveal extended launch rails and new sites in Russia's Oryol region, indicating a push to increase drone operations. However, Russia faces significant challenges: many drones are reportedly falling apart mid-flight due to poor manufacturing, and the number of available launch sites limits the scale of attacks. Ukrainian forces have successfully intercepted and destroyed numerous Russian drones, sometimes setting daily records.
The ongoing drone war highlights both Russia's efforts to innovate and the persistent logistical and quality issues undermining its campaign.
