Эксперт заявил о необходимости выделения БПЛА в отдельный род войск в армии России

Will Allow for a More Substantive and Prompt Resolution of Aircraft Servicing Issues

In the Russian army, it is necessary to consolidate reconnaissance, reconnaissance-strike, and strike UAV units into a single branch of the military, according to military expert Evgeny Damantsev.

According to him, this will allow for a much more prompt and substantive resolution of aircraft servicing issues, their integration into automated tactical-level control systems with the optimization of cryptographically protected command and telemetry channels.

The most important stage will be the organizational and technical component of transforming UAV squadrons into a separate branch of the military, the implementation of which should not negatively affect the effectiveness of the reconnaissance-strike contour already established in motorized rifle and artillery units, including those working with the Discord system.

The priority is the development of new network-centric data exchange systems that should replace Discord without losing its functional potential.
