Abstract:

The Russian military is rapidly fielding new unmanned systems into its branches having learned lessons from recent conflicts. Should Russia enter a conflict with Ukraine, it will use many of the unmanned systems it has tested in other theaters such as Syria. It may also use the opportunity to test new systems. This report looks at the various lessons learned and the possible systems that would play a role in Russian military operations against Ukraine.
