The #SBU struck four strategic airfields in different regions of Russia with drones. The total losses of enemy aircraft amount to 41 units, including #A_50, #Tu_95, #Tu_22, #Tu_160, #An_12,

cities. #A_50, #Tu_95, #Tu_22, #Tu_160, #An_12, and #Il_78 are among the hit aircraft.

During the operation, drones were led by a combination of autonomous artificial intelligence algorithms and manual intrusions by an operator.

Some of the drones carried the mission out using #AI and flew by a route that was programmed into them beforehand. After they made contact with a defined target, their combat part worked immediately.
