While the Russians press forward with sophisticated drone strikes, the Ukrainian response involves counter-offensive tactics leveraging emerging technologies. Reisner highlights the use of long-range drones targeting Russian oil facilities, indicating a shift towards innovative tactics in warfare. However, the capability to sustain prolonged strike rates remains in question.

With strategic weaknesses evident in the Ukrainian defense, the Russians capitalize on these gaps, launching attacks wherever opportunities arise.
