Defense forces of Ukraine destroyed the Buk-M3 air defense system of the Russian occupiers
On the night of October 21, units of the Unmanned Systems Forces of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, in cooperation with other components of the Defense Forces, as part of the tasks to detect and destroy the enemy’s anti-aircraft defenses, hit the Buk-M3 anti-aircraft missile system.
The complex was located about 60 kilometers from the battle line. Depending on the modification, its cost can be from 40 to 50 million US dollars.

They have mother drones that they send out as far as they can with smaller “child” drones mounted to them.
The mother drones allow them to launch further into contested territory and also acts as an internet repeater that allows the drone operator to connect and control miles away.
The mother drone is large enough to be detected by anti aircraft and costs a lot of money. These smaller drones are essentially sacrificial, but the value to return is astronomical.
Woah, that’s pretty neat. Do you have any names of drones I can look up? Seems like an interesting rabbit hole to dive into
