Ukrainians Embed with US Forces During Drills in Germany to Teach the Latest in Drone Warfare
About a dozen Ukrainian advisers are embedded with the 173rd Airborne Brigade as the Army tests tactics shaped by 1,900 drones, officials said.
- About a dozen Ukrainian military personnel are participating in U.S. Army exercises in Germany this year, providing insights on drone and electronic warfare to the 173rd Airborne Brigade.
- Gen. Terry Tillis, who leads the Germany-based Army training unit, reported they possess 1,900 drones reflecting "the latest things that we" learned from Ukrainian efforts in the war.
- Roughly 50% of the 173rd Airborne Brigade's engagements during the exercise "were drone contact first," Anthony Miller, the Army's chief technology officer, told reporters this week.
- Gen. Christopher LaNeve recently ordered a specialized drone unit within the 173rd Airborne Brigade to return to traditional infantry duties, following Army Secretary Dan Driscoll's departure early this month.
- Army leaders continue debating how to structure ground forces for a future where drones are omnipresent, while the United States remains focused on adapting tactics to counter Iranian drone threats.
