Recently, the Russian drone Molniya attacked one of Ukraine’s key facilities. However, the issue is that it was completely without a control antenna, according to Serhii "Flash" Beskrestnov, advisor to the Minister of Defense of Ukraine and a radio technology specialist.
"Russian Molniya UAV attacked our facility without any control antenna. The UAV had only a camera and a computer," "Flash" confirmed.
According to him, everything is heading toward a situation where navigation, target acquisition, and attack functions of enemy drones will become fully autonomous.

The adviser to the minister added that this is not the first such case. In particular, identical solutions were previously identified in the Russian V2U drone.
"Flash" had previously warned that the Russians are training a neural network specifically on the basis of this UAV.
"Today we detected such a solution on the Molniya. This is a bad sign," warned Serhii Beskrestnov.

In this context, he also urged all Ukrainians to report such findings either to him or to commanders.
"This is very important," he concluded.
Previously, "Flash" had publicly revealed the most dangerous technological challenges for the Armed Forces of Ukraine on the battlefield.
In addition, he commented on the shutdown of retransmitters in Belarus and explained what exactly would change as a result of Lukashenko’s decision.
The minister’s adviser also spoke about new methods of Russian terror. As it turned out, Russia is attempting to target Ukraine’s coastline using unmanned surface vessels.
