Russians say they found unjammable fiber-optic drones in Ukraine’s uncrewed sea vehicles

• According to Russian reports, a Ukrainian drone boat served as a carrier for fiber optic drones.

• For the first time in Ukraine’s naval war, insufficient Quadcopters were reported.

• Both sides are called new ways to bring such strike drones closer to their goals.

Ukrainian first person using vision drones Fiber optic cables According to an attack reports in the Krasnodar region, it was found in the sea to mortal the jam.

Dronlar, this weekend was seen in images published by Russian news channels and military bloggers, which was obtained after attacking Kiev’s Port cities on Friday Tuapse and Novorossyysk.

Krasnodar officials said that Ukraine Marine Drons were involved in the raid and that Ukraine aims for the oil infrastructure on the Black Sea coast. At least two people were injured from the office of a large oil company.

A Subsequent video It seems to show an unpaid surface vehicle anchored close to the shore – essentially a sea drone. The drone is uncertain, but it can be attached to several boxes of hinged lids.

Ukraine used roofs or caps that were previously employed to release the drones, especially in June, in the depths of Russia, in the depths of Russia, dozens of FPV platform Spiderweb operation.

A separate photo The first person view or FPV shows the Quadcopter drone from the interior of a box. Other images showed Quadcopters with attached boxes designed to hold fiber optic reel.

Business Insider could not independently confirm the reality of the images, but the platforms they describe are compatible with designs for Ukraine’s sea drones and fiber optic drones.

The images, Ukraine’s first public example deploying fiber optic drones at sea represents a constant sign on how the drone battle is. Developing low cost tactics For both the floor and the sea war.

Mothers of Fiber Optic Drones

The concept of distributing Quadcopters by sea is not new. Kiev’s forces were previously reported to have used sea drones as carriers for standard FPV drones in early December.

However, fiber optic drones are a special type of free platform mounted with a reel consisting of highly thin cables that can be reduced to miles. The cables allow the drone to remain in connection with a pilot or signal source despite the presence of electronic war that squeezes radio frequencies that the drones typically trust.

Although it is more difficult to produce and distribute, Fiber optic drones grew popular After the end of 2024, they searched for ways to jump on both Ukraine and the Russian battlefield.

Both sides experiment with mobile carriers or “Mothers” for fiber optic drones Because cables can block the range or abilities of the platform. The more designed to fly a drone, the longer the cable should be added to its weight. The extra load may cause the platform to fly more slowly, require a larger frame, or carry a smaller explosive load.

Ukrainian and Russian engineers thus tried to alleviate these problems by invention to approach a stuck area and then released fiber optic drones with a radio signal that could not be controlled by a radio signal.

Since fiber optic drones are more rare, drone pilots usually separate them for high -value targets, or attack stucks to release the airspace to follow standard FPV drones.

Russian reports also overlap with Ukraine’s development NEW SEA BASED DRONS Instead of a traditional fleet. In the last three years, Kiev has used explosives of explosives connected to their bodies and used intense surface ships designed to coach enemy warships.

Tactical, NATO, the US and Taiwan, with parties that develop and test their own small, cheap sea drones, are gaining traction in other parts of the world.

Russia also brings fiber optic drones to sea operations. At the beginning of this month, the Russian state media of the Black Sea fleet Testing sea drones Heavy fiber optic cables designed to sink while loosening the reels.
