1/ The commander of Ukrainian's unmanned air forces, Robert "Madyar" Brovdi, has announced a set of reforms to improve the effectiveness and logistical supply of drones in the Ukrainian armed forces. They are to be implemented over the next three months. ⬇️ Image
2/ As described by the 'Cuckoo's Nest' Telegram channel:

🔺 Immediate implementation of existing collective experience.
3/🔺 Transparent results: 6-7 units of the Unmanned Systems Line of Drones will be included in the TOP-10 according to the existing rating of the effectiveness of the UAV units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
4/ 🔺 Unified SYSTEM: all units of the Unmanned Systems Line of Drones performing combat missions at the front will operate in a single electronic system of planning, analysis, coordination, management, and online reporting with automatic verification of all results (June–July 2025).
5/ 🔺 12 layers of SBS influence on the strip in tactical and operational depth: immediate step-by-step launch or reinforcement in SBS units of the drone line of all 12 layers of influence on the assigned strip (following the example of the use of the 414th Separate Brigade,…
6/ …including SIGINT, EW, radar, enemy UAV fighters, remote mining, echeloned use of anti-Shahid means, anti-pilot action groups, etc.), immediate launch of retraining of the armed forces, competent provision of means, technologies and control systems (June–September 2025)
7/ 🔺 Building up our own existing ammunition production for competent and timely provision, and not according to the final principle of "we fight with what we have left." Ammunition is waiting for pilots, and not vice versa.
8/ 🔺 Single composition of critical components. Creation of a single supply warehouse and timely provision of units with a package of 50 critical means and components (such as StarLink, additional batteries for drones, mobile electronic warfare systems, FPV and bomber customization components, peripherals, power banks, pickups, etc.).
9/ 🔺 Ground robotic complexes - as the main means of logistics of warheads, drones and peripherals to pilots in positions, etc.
10/ 🔺 A single recruiting campaign for the SBS and basic + professional at the same time (analogous to the already introduced training system in the Drone Line), its own network of FPV schools, bombers, wings, electronic warfare, radio-electronic warfare, radars, fighters, NRK, etc.
11/ 🔺 PILOTS FLY, EVERYONE ELSE WORKS TO SUPPORT THE PROCESS. Revision and optimization of the combat and emergency response forces of the SBS, retraining and prompt training of inexperienced or incompetent crews,…
12/ … reprofiling by types of flight activities, revision of dead souls, guest workers, draft dodgers in military uniform, the tired and the dodgy.
13/ 🔺 COUNT-PLAN-RECEIVE-FIGHT. Unified analysis of the capabilities and fact of use, results in the context of drone / ammunition models for the implementation of accurate planning and implementation of support.
14/ 🔺 Separate section - the use of UAVs at strategic depth.
15/🔺 R & D (center for innovation and implementation of developments). Transformation of the current center from the brigade level to the level of support of the branch of the armed forces and more (15 models of already implemented projects and means).

1/ Russian warbloggers say that Russian army commanders are causing unnecessary problems for other units, and heavy casualties for their own men, by lying about their successes. This exposes the flanks of neighbouring units and causes men to be sent into unsupported assaults. ⬇️ Image
2/ The Russian army has had widespread problems with commanders falsely claiming to have captured objectives – a practice dubbed "taking on credit" – since the early days of the war in Ukraine.
3/ False reporting often takes the form of sending a few expendable men forward to plant a flag on a building in a Ukrainian-held settlement, so that a drone can video it for a report of a successful capture to be sent to HQ. This is termed a "photo fact".

1/ On preparing a new member of a Russian stormtrooper unit, to which he has been assigned as a punishment, for his first assault mission: ⬇️ Image
2/ "The smell of pine needles, dust, exhaust fumes. The noise of the engine, the rustle of gear, the jingle of all sorts of shiny things falling into a bag. The dry sound of phones being lowered into a lock box. The crunch of automatic rifles being checked.
3/ "The quiet curses of the company commander, yanking a garish, bright Esmarch harness off the shoulder of one of the careless newbies in the assault.

1/ The imprisoned Igor 'Strelkov' Girkin has given a gloomy prediction of the likelihood of Russian success in the Sumy and Dnipropetrovsk regions of Ukraine. They're well-defended by the Ukrainians, he says, while Russia has insufficient forces to capture them. ⬇️ Image
2/ Girkin writes:

"The offensive in the Sumy region had been in preparation for a long time. The enemy knew about it very well, the enemy began building defensive structures against this supposed offensive several months ago, built several defensive lines to the east of Sumy."
3/ "And now they are already reporting construction to the west – well, apparently because everything they could build to the east has already been built.

The distance from the front line to Sumy is now about 20-25 km.

1/ Corrupt Russian officers are suspected to be selling information to Ukraine, contributing to the destruction of high-value assets such as this Iskander missile launcher, according to a Russian journalist. ⬇️
2/ On 5 June, Ukraine destroyed an Iskander ballistic missile launcher and its rockets. According to Russian journalist Maxim Kalashnikov, the launcher was destroyed and 8 personnel from the 26th Missile Brigade (military unit 54006) were killed.
3/ Kalashnikov says that “the Ukrainian Armed Forces and the Security Service of Ukraine [are working] to actually knock out our operational-tactical missile units, those same Iskanders. They started hunting them.”

1/ Putin's announcement of a new Russian drone force has been welcomed grudgingly by Russian warbloggers. They complain that it's far too late, and highlight the deficiencies of a bureaucratic system that provides soldiers with too few drones. ⬇️
2/ 'SHAKESPEARE' grouses that "Not even three years have passed since [the Ukrainians created a drone force]. I don't even know what emotion to feel now: rejoice or swear."
3/ "UPD: Here my comrades told me that we are not three, but only a year and a half behind [the Ukrainians]. Well, yes, this is a great achievement. There is something to be proud of.

1/ Israel launched drones which attacked targets in Iran using what may have been an identical method to that employed by Ukraine recently. A video shows what appears to be a commercial vehicle, reportedly used as a drone launcher, self-destructing near Tehran yesterday. ⬇️
2/ Compare this to the drone launchers used in Ukraine's recent Operation Spiderweb attack on the Russian Air Force – wooden cabins carried on the back of flatbed trucks, which likewise self-destructed after use.
3/ Israel does not appear to have publicised how it carried out the drone attacks, but the possible use of a commercial vehicle as a drone launcher suggests a similar approach to that employed by Ukraine. The Israeli drones reportedly attacked Iranian air defences.
