One aspect of the current conflict in #Ukraine which isn't being (publicly) discussed much is DIY or locally developed "drones" usage for advanced warfare.

Its easy to assume that Ukraine is well beyond the "DIY" level described in the article, which while covering different scenarios should give a general idea of the possibilities available today.
After all in 2014 and 2015 they where fast to recognise the value of the tech and employ it creatively on the battlefield. With local designs , modifications to commercial ones and custom combat tactics developed around them. They also learned to adapt to #Russia EW efforts.
Small & gov financed teams can come up rapidly with many experimental designs which even in small numbers can bring significative advantages in the current battlefield.
Leaving this here as food for thought, deeper analysis & more info or even just speculation will have to come later with more data AND no risk to expose current efforts. But I think we will at some point find out of some clever stuff being done....
