Ukrainian spider web: 40 Russian bombers destroyed in one fell swoop!

As part of the large -scale operation "Spider Netz", Ukraine has successfully destroyed around 40 Russian bombers. This reports merkur . The attacks that aimed several military airfields in Russia, including Djagilewo, Iwanowo and Olenia, caused an estimated financial damage of over six billion euros.

Ukrainian President Wolodymyr Selenskyj praised the result of the attacks as "absolutely brilliant", since 34% of the strategic bombers that are equipped with marching aircraft were hit. Despite these devastating losses, Russia speaks of a "terrorist attack" and claims that many of the attacks have been repaid. According to reports, there were significant fires at the affected airfields in Murmansk and Irkutsk, but there is no information about victims.

preparation and implementation of the operation

The preparation of the "Spider Netz" operation extended over 18 months and was directly controlled by President Selenskyj. According to Ukinform was extremely complex. The SBU initially transported FPV drones to mobile wooden houses to hide them on truck. At the crucial moment, the roofs of the wooden houses were opened remotely, which means that the drones could fly to their destinations.

Exclusive photos from the preparation process show how the drones were prepared for the attack. The SBU planned the attacks on four military airfields, with 41 fighter planes, including long-range bombers of the Tupolew TU-95 and TU-22 M3, were successfully neutralized.

drones as key technology

The importance of drones in modern warfare is becoming increasingly clear. According to the Ukrainian Minister of Digital Transformation, Mychajlo Fedorow, about 95% of the drones used in Ukraine are produced in their own country. Innovative technologies and a strong commitment to digital strategies have enabled Ukraine to significantly increase their military skills since the conflict began over three years ago. Fedorow speaks of close cooperation between Ukrainian and European armed forces to further strengthen defense while Europe increases its defense spending. This cooperation and the rapid development of new technologies could significantly change the future of warfare.

In the current situation, traditional weapon systems are still of great importance, but are increasingly being supplemented by drone technology. Russia's armed forces also use drones, including fiber optic drones that are able to penetrate secret zones.

In order to promote recruitment and operational readiness, new apps such as reserve+ and DIIA have been introduced, which make it easier to register soldiers and integrate them into the new drone units. Nevertheless, there are concerns about trust in the recruitment processes, especially since the conscription is reduced.

The "Spider Netz" operation and the associated attacks are reminiscent of the fact that Ukraine continues to develop innovative tactics in order to be successful in the fight against the Russian armed forces. The new technologies, coupled with strategic logistics and precise implementation, set an important accent in the constant conflict about national sovereignty.
