Ukraine Tests Jam-Proof Fiber-Optic Drones

The Ukrainian military is testing new drones using fiber optics on the front line against Russian forces. The low-flying drones are tied to the ground via thin fiber-optic cables that unwind as the drone flies farther from the controller.Unlike radio-controlled drones, fiber-optic drones cannot be jammed by opposing forces using "electronic warfare."The cable transmits a high-quality image back to the ground, right up to the moment of detonation."These drones can fly up to 60 kilometers per hour, perform maneuvers, and within a range of 10 kilometers,…
