War in Ukraine
Nick Reynolds, a research fellow in land warfare at the Royal United Services Institute in the U.K., is skeptical of the significance of drones and electronic warfare to the events in Kursk. He said via email that it's unclear how much planning was needed for the Kursk offensive, and also to what degree Ukraine has been able to integrate its drone-and-jamming tactics with planned manoeuvres. It also remains to be seen if Ukraine can repeat "the same effects when they are not conducting a meticulously pre-planned operation."
