Ukrainian forces say they found and attacked a Russian drone base after hacking a drone and geolocating the footage.
Ukrainian drone commander Robert Brovdi said that electronic warfare specialists were aware of a Russian first-person-view (FPV) drone flying in Kherson and that the feed was “intercepted immediately,” Forbes reported.
The footage was sent to Ukraine’s 36th Marine Brigade, who geolocated it and sent a reconnaissance drone to investigate the area, Brovdi said.
A video shows a drone positioning itself above a building at the Russian site, which is then struck by artillery.
I think either way Russia will have to slow down or even stop using drones until they can figure out how the drone was hacked. So even if they are revealing their hand to early, it is still a big win for Ukraine. They will have less pressure from the sky.
