Analysis of strategies to counter unmanned aerial systems amid changing warfare dynamics, highlighting implications for conventional forces.
The dynamics of modern warfare are undergoing rapid transformation, and one of the most significant drivers of this change is the widespread use of Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS). Over the past decade, small and inexpensive drones employed for both reconnaissance and strike missions have fundamentally altered the character of armed conflicts. The Second Nagorno-Karabakh war and the ongoing conflict in Ukraine have clearly demonstrated that UAS can undermine the effectiveness of conventional forces and even traditional air defense systems.
