Ukraine is losing its drone supremacy
Credit: Social Media In an undisclosed location near the front line, Vanya, a Ukrainian soldier, traverses through a field covered in the traces of a deadly Russian weapon. It's not unexploded ordnance or landmines beneath his boots, however, but an endless stream of razor-thin fibre-optic cables, glistening in the sun while spooled out across the landscape. These are the lifelines of Russia's most effective weapon – fibre-optic guided FPV drones. Once an obscure experiment, these drones have become one of the defining weapons of the battlefield in recent months, impervious to jamming and able to strike targets far behind enemy lines with chilling precision. X/@GrandpaRoy2 What's more, while Ukraine first pioneered drone warfare, it's Russia that appears to have mastered this next phase. 'Our advantage in drones, which we have held since 2023, has been surpassed by the Russians,' a senior non-commissioned officer with Ukraine's 3rd Separate Assault Brigade, call sign 'Jackie', told The Telegraph. 'We did all the work of innovating drones as a weapon, but we did not scale this weapon fast enough on an industrial level for it to have a meaningful strategic effect. We were too slow.' The dominance of fibre-optic drones marks a pivot in drone warfare. In 2024, Ukrainian and Russian production of traditional, radio-controlled FPV drones surged. But these drones relied on radio frequencies, meaning they increasingly fell prey to electronic warfare (EW) jamming. In fact, by the end of last year, up to 75 per cent of drones fired by Russia and Ukraine were being knocked out by jamming, according to military expert Pavlo Narozhny. Enter the fibre-optic drone – a wired throwback to Cold War-era anti-tank missiles like the US-made TOW (Tube-launched, Optically tracked, Wire-guided), but refashioned for modern aerial warfare. The drones themselves appear unremarkable – quadcopters rigged with explosive payloads – except for a large, cylindrical spool mounted underneath, feeding out a strand of fibre-optic cable as they fly. This physical tether between pilot and drone makes them impossible to knock out using jamming. The tactical implications are vast. Fibre-optic drones can fly into hangars, bunkers, dense urban terrain or tree cover with no loss of signal. Their camera feed is clearer. They don't emit detectable signals, meaning typical radio frequency detectors can't pick them up. And they don't expose the operator's location. 'They're really great when you need to fly into some kind of building, like a large shed or hangar, to have a look inside if there is something there with the ability to strike it straight away,' Oleksandr 'Skhid,' an FPV drone team commander in Ukraine's Achilles Strike Drone Regiment, told the Kyiv Independent. 'The same goes for other types of cover, and flying in forested areas.' The drones can typically travel up to 25km, comparable to the range of the most commonly used radio controlled FPVs, with a prototype developed by Ukraine's '414th Strike UAV Battalion' reaching up to 41km. The technology itself isn't new. In fact, Russia began deploying these makeshift drones after Ukraine launched its daring incursion into Kursk last August. But what makes the Russian deployment of these drones so dangerous is the recent increase in scale. Once seen as clunky and niche, they are now being mass-produced and have been deployed along key front lines. 'You can barely walk through the fields after fibre optic drones have flown through,' Pasha, a senior instructor at Kyiv's Dragon Sky UAV training centre, told the Telegraph. Russia's ruthless deployment of the drones was on full display during the recent intensive push to drive Ukrainian forces out of Kursk in an effort led by Russia's elite 'Rubicon' drone unit. Footage captured in March showed a Ukrainian vehicle packed with soldiers hurtling along the R200 road, which linked Ukraine to the town of Sudzha, its last remaining stronghold inside the Russian border region. Credit: Telegram/@Brigada83 It was hunted down and destroyed by a Russian fibre-optic drone, which was lying in wait on the side of the road. Within weeks, that same road was littered with the carcasses of vehicles destroyed in a similar fashion. The drones have also been responsible for the destruction of Ukrainian armoured vehicles and key weapons – often deep behind the front line in locations radio-controlled drones would struggle to reach because of jamming and radio horizon. In Chasiv Yar, for example, the Rubicon unit destroyed one of Ukraine's precious US-made Himars using a fibre-optic drone 10km behind the front line. 'They have pushed the safe zone to 10-15 km away from the front line, have made logistics and troop rotation more complicated and forced us to double down on digging deep down and disguising the locations and bunkers,' a spokesperson for the Khartia Brigade of the Ukrainian National Guard said. 'They're a game changer,' agreed 'Uncle Sasha', a front-line FPV instructor and officer in Ukraine's National Police Aviation Division. 'Everyone is trying to find countermeasures to fibre-optic drones – we don't have them, and neither do the Russians.' Credit: Russian Ministry of Defence / 'Rubicon' drone unit Despite their battlefield success, fibre-optic drones are no silver bullet. They're expensive – just one fibre spool can cost $700 (£520), enough to buy two conventional drones – and their range is limited by the cable length. They are also heavier, and therefore often slower. To achieve the same speeds as a radio-controlled drone, a heavier fibre-optic drone must expend more battery power, limiting its range. As a result, most pilots flying fibre drones typically fly them at much slower speeds. They also have much lower manoeuvrability, due to the trailing cable, which must be precisely spooled to avoid tangles, and a strong wind can upend a stationary drone hunting its prey mid-mission. 'Fibre optic drones are very, very, very slow,' explained Mr Narozhy, whose Reactive Post NGO provides spare parts to the Ukrainian military. 'At the start of the flight, the weight is well-centred, but by the end, it's often off-balance.' There are signs that both sides are developing countermeasures, however rudimentary. 'In one case, a group of Ukrainian soldiers saw a Russian drone fly past them,' recalled Pasha. 'They realised it was a Russian drone so just went out and snapped the cable.' Ukraine is also experimenting with drone-catching fishing nets, wooden decoys, and even placing soldiers with shotguns near artillery systems, a solution so manpower-intensive it is near impossible to sustain. High-tech radar systems that can detect fibre-optic drones up to 20km away do exist but cost over a million euros each. 'Ukraine cannot afford to put this on every artillery station,' Mr Narozhy said. Such systems also produce emissions that are easily detected by Russian radar detectors. Credit: Telegram/@Brigada83 Ironically, Ukraine may have had the head start. Fibre-optic drones were reportedly first conceived by Ukrainian engineers but shelved early on due to the effectiveness of cheaper, more agile FPV drones, and the absence of effective Russian jamming. Now, at least on the fibre optic front, Kyiv is playing catch-up. 'While Ukrainian drone teams and innovators have achieved great success at the tactical level, we have failed to leverage our tactical advantage into strategic success,' said 'Jackie' of the 3rd Separate Assault Brigade. 'The window of time we held this tactical advantage has now closed.' 'It's possible we will achieve another level of technological innovation during this war,' he added. 'But it's not important that it works. It's important that we can scale it up so fast that the enemy cannot react to it.' For Russia, the Rubicon-led development of fibre-optic drones is part of the Kremlin's wider push to gain the upper hand in the battle for drone supremacy. Following the successful Kursk counter-offensive, Rubucion's drone pilots now operate in at least seven specialist detachments across eastern Ukraine, carrying out complex, decentralised missions. The Russian defence ministry has also established its own version of Ukraine's unmanned systems forces to boost the use of all types of drones by Russia's armed forces, with Andrei Belousov, the Russian defence minister, announcing the creation of a new military unit planned to be completed by July 1 this year. It is also worth noting that Ukrainian drones, both radio-controlled and fibre-optic, still retain their brutal effectiveness. With Russia currently on the offensive, Ukrainian drone pilots have an easier time striking infantry and armoured vehicles, while Ukraine's own elite drone teams regularly strike Russian logistics vehicles, air defence systems, and artillery pieces deep behind the front line. In any case, the implications, as with many new developments in the war, extend beyond Ukraine. Western militaries, reliant on jamming and electronic warfare to counter drones, would be 'completely and totally vulnerable to fibre optic FPV drones,' one Ukrainian source warned. 'All current counter-measures used by Western militaries, such as electronic warfare systems, are useless against such drones, and they have no experience operating in an environment where FPVs saturate the battlefield.' In the meantime, Ukraine is racing to find an effective countermeasure that extends beyond using wooden decoys and shooting drones down with shotguns. This is a technological arms race and Russia, even if temporarily, has the lead. 'We were laughing at them before,' said Pasha. 'But now it's not funny.' Still, hope persists. 'This is a big problem for us,' said Uncle Sasha. 'But it's a problem for the Russians too, and I think we will solve it. We will find a solution to protect us from this technology.'

KARATE KID: LEGENDS is in theaters now. - This is Jackie Chan. This is Wired Autocomplete Interview. [upbeat music] Three, two, one. [claps] Go! [upbeat music] Okay. So one drop, so I took this one first. [interpreter speaking in a foreign language] - I can speak Cantonese, Mandrin, a little bit English, and Shandong, Shanghai. A lot of Korean, Japanese. And Taiwanese. Not many. Eight. [paper tearing] Oh. Doing his. - [Interpreter] Own stunts. - Yes, I'm still doing my own stunt. Why? Because even now, today, the technology so good. But the world audience still like to see Jackie Chan doing the own things. Maybe 40 years ago, I can do a triple kick. Ba-ba-boom. Ba-ba-boom. 20 years later, double kick. But now I do one kick. Okay. I just do, show the one kick. This is how I'm do it. If right now, jumping the floor, no. I do need a double now. Stunt. - [Interpreter] Double. [interpreter speaking in foreign language] - It depends. Like, when I have drive a helicopter, we need some professional. When I doing a triple kick, then I need, I have 100 students. We can, in the middle, I can pick out who do the best, who do this, who do that. Oh. Training. I have my training camp with all my stunt team. Like, three hour. Most of the time, we punch and talking, kicking and think about choreograph, how to different than some other movies, Use what kind of weapon, a chair. The board. How to fight with the board. Yeah. Yeah. What is Jackie Chan first job? First job, when I was eight, I was child actor. [paper tearing] First movie. Same. When I was seven, I was like a angel, and I'm singing. [Jackie singing in foreign language] That's me. The first job. First movie. [paper tearing] [Jackie speaking in foreign language] - [Interpreter] Famous quote. - My famous quote? I can do it. Never give up. Whenever I do the stunt, I will look at the dangerous things, I say, "I can do it. I can do it. I can do it. Don't give up." Boom! Then I jump. Then breaking ankle. Then break my skull. [paper tearing] [interpreter speaking in foreign language] - [Interpreter] What car does Jackie Chan drive? - The first car I drive. Ah! The boss gave to me. It was a Volkswagen. The one exactly like "Karate Kid", the Jaden Smith, I was break the car, the same car. Right now, it's Toyota. - [Interpreter] Alpha. - Alpha. More people can sit down. Easy. Not like it used to be, sport car. But now, I'm most comfortable as possible. More low-key as possible. - Next board. - Right on your face. Oh. No. [beep] [Jackie speaking in foreign language] [interpreter speaking in foreign language] - No. My family rule, no ear hole, no tattoo. Even my son. [paper tearing] [interpreter speaking in foreign language] - Can I sing? Wherever you go, whatever you do I will be right here waiting for you Whatever you do or how my heart break I will be right here waiting for you Ha-cha-cha-cha-cha! Fighting. Okay. Another one. Why so many question? Huh? [interpreter speaking in foreign language] - Where I'm living? I'm based in Hong Kong. But right now, I'm staying Beijing. I'm filming in Beijing right now. And this moment, I'm in Myanmar between China border filming in the jungle. [interpreter speaking in foreign language] - Now? Right now? Right this moment, I'm in London. [interpreter speaking in foreign language] - Oh, my teacher from China. There so many teacher in that time from China. So we teach singing, dancing, stick fight, knife fight, kicking, punch, all kind of things for 10 years. [interpreter speaking in foreign language] - My father, I'm growing up in French embassy until I'm seven. [interpreter speaking in foreign language] - I'm filming "Panda Project 2" The first one, last year was released. This year, we're making "Panda Project 2". Filming between Yunnan and Myanmar's, China's border. [interpreter speaking in foreign language] - When I learn in school, I learn southern style. After 10 years, I learn northern style. So I know both style. Southern style more jumping. Northern style more on the ground. Not so many jumping. And after that, I learn karate, hapkido, judo, boxing. I learn so many things. Because in that time, we don't have cell phone, we don't have karaoke, we don't have anything. And most important, I don't have money. Most of the time, we stay in the dojo school. Karate-ing with all of the friends. That's how we spent every day. Not like this day, you can have karaoke, drinking bar, mostly cell phone. We don't. But I'm glad. Because at that time, we don't have these kind of things, I training a lot. Change. [interpreter speaking in foreign language] - Oh. When I was young, I was very big, very fat. So in Chinese name, call me Pao. It's like a canyon. My mom speak Shanghainese, just called me Apo. In the embassy, everybody call me Po. I thought it's a English Po. It's not Shanghainese Pao. My father went to Australia, American embassy. When I get there, everybody call me, "What's your name?" I said, "Okay, my name's Po." At that time, I want to learn English. Then I go to the night school. Then the teacher asked me, "What's your name?" I said, "My name is Chan Kong-Sang." "No, your name is Steven." I said, "Okay." Embassy, Po. School, Steven. Then I went to the, some work. Then my friend bring me there. Then "Do this guy have a English name?" "No." "Okay." He use his name, put on my name. He's like, "His name called Jack." In Australia, I have Po, Steven, Jack. Then Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack, Jack. After nine months, I know a little bit English because Jack Chan, no rhythm. Just like fighting. Then I put a Y. Then Jacky Chan. Then after that, when I make a movie, after famous, I sign to Golden Harvest. And the Golden Harvest said, "Jackie, you're too strong, too man. You have to change a little bit." Then they take out the Y. They put the I-E. So you see '80s, my posters still J-A-C-K-Y. But after '80s, always J-A-C-K-I-E. Jackie Chan. Believe it or not, after I change it I-E, my career just boom, boom, boom, boom, boom, boom. Thing was stuck. Huh? [interpreter speaking in foreign language] - Oh. I like any food. But I don't like animal stomach, inside. Especially these day, not many steaks. I don't know why. Now I like more soup, vegetable, fruit, mango, bread. Croissant. [upbeat music] I toss a lot of board. This is very fun. I see you next time. I need more board. I need more question. I need you know more about me. Bye bye. [upbeat music]

Live cam viewers catch special moment as Big Bear eaglet Sunny attempts first flight
For the first time, one of the two young bald eagles born this year in the beloved Big Bear nest was seen attempting to take flight. The eaglet, named Sunny, appeared hesitant as he spread his wings and briefly lifted off – but, despite his fear, it marked a special moment for tens of thousands of viewers around the world who have been following Jackie and Shadow's family journey via livestream. 'Sunny looked afraid,' said Sandy Steers with Friends of Big Bear Valley, the nonprofit that manages the eagle cam. 'When he went back, he let the wind carry him back to the nest, and he laid down for over two hours.' Exhausting and perhaps terrifying for the young eagle, the moment marks one of the final steps before taking full flight. According to Steers, a fledgling could happen at any moment now. Sunny and his sibling, Gizmo, were born to Jackie and Shadow, a bonded bald eagle pair who have drawn global attention since they began rebuilding their mountaintop nest in October. 'Bringing in big sticks and tugging back and forth on them and making sure they're all in the right place and doing the beaky kisses that they do to bond,' Steers recalled. In January, Jackie laid three eggs, and both parents were seen playfully vying for the chance to keep them warm. 'It's amazing how much they want to take care of their eggs,' Steers said. All three eggs hatched successfully by March, but a harsh late-winter storm tested the family's resilience. One eaglet died during the storm. 'We think it was the oldest one,' Steers said. 'That it might have gotten big enough and gotten out from under Jackie during the storm and gotten wet.' Despite the loss, Jackie and Shadow continued caring for their remaining two chicks, drawing admiration from tens of thousands of viewers who watched their journey online. 'What were you thinking when you watched that?' KTLA's Shelby Nelson asked Steers, reflecting on Sunny's first lift off. 'I was impressed and excited at the same time,' said Steers. Gizmo, the younger eaglet by four days, may take a bit more time before following suit. 'Gizmo likes to eat and likes to lie in bed and be fed by mom, and so we aren't sure how fast she's going to develop,' Steers said. For viewers around the world, the eagle family has been a lesson in perseverance, devotion, and love. 'First of all, resilience,' Steers said. 'No matter what's going on, Jackie and Shadow just keep coming and bringing food… And they take care of chicks no matter what's going on.' 'To me, it's like the signs of what real love is about,' she added. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved. This material may not be published, broadcast, rewritten, or redistributed.

EXCLUSIVE Naked Diddy hid in a burka as he directed my sex with Cassie. I had no idea who he was... the truth emerged in an extraordinary way
As an exotic dancer, Sharay Hayes was used to performing at bachelorette parties all over New York City. But Hayes wasn't prepared when a woman named 'Jackie' handed him $800 to have sex with her at a hotel room in 2012 while her 'husband' watched.
