Serhii "Flash" Beskrestnov, an adviser to Ukraine's defence minister, said that alongside positive news from the war, Ukraine faces a number of technological problems and named the main ones.

Details: Among the key problems, Flash identified the absence of a serial and mass-production solution for countering guided aerial bombs.

"It is precisely the guided aerial bombs that are causing us many problems on the fronts," he noted.

He also said that Russian forces are increasing their use of Mesh modems for reconnaissance and strikes with Shahed and Gerberа-type drones, while Ukraine is, in his opinion, unacceptably slow in developing electronic warfare countermeasures against this technology.

Flash also drew attention to the large-scale problem of drone attacks on frontline territories.

"It is not only villages that are suffering, but also Kherson, Kharkiv, Zaporizhzhia and Sumy. Alert systems and systematic action against drones are needed," Flash added.

He separately stressed the need to increase the number of tactical radar stations, since without a denser radar coverage, interceptor drones cannot operate effectively.

He also noted that Ukraine does not yet have its own ballistic missile, which in his view could radically change the course of the war.

Among other problems, the expert identified the absence of mass and serial electronic warfare systems against drone video channels, in the development and use of which, in his assessment, the Russians are ahead of Ukraine.

"Precisely this kind of electronic warfare would help us protect frontline zones from drones," Flash stressed.

He also said there is an absence of proven solutions for protecting medium-range and heavy strike UAVs from anti-drone interceptors.

"If we do not create them, working conditions will become very difficult very soon," Beskrestnov said.

Flash is convinced Ukraine also lacks a systematic technological approach to locating and destroying the Russians' tactical radar stations, which he called "the enemy's eyes in the sky at the front". He also noted the need for developments and solutions in the field of alternative navigation for long-range strike drones (deep strike).

Background:

  • Flash previously reported that the Russian army is using the compact MSL 20045 radar station at the front, capable of detecting FPV drones at a distance of around eight kilometres.
  • He also said that Russian Shahed and Gerbera-type drones with Mesh modems are reaching ever deeper into Ukraine's rear and that electronic warfare systems are not always effective against them.
  • In February, a Russian FPV drone guided by fibre-optic cable reached the northern outskirts of Kharkiv.
