During the Combined Resolve exercises in Germany in April and May, the 3,500-strong US brigade faced Ukraine’s 412th “Nemesis” Regiment of the Unmanned Systems Forces.

Dust clouds made the heavy armored personnel carriers visible to Ukrainian reconnaissance drones, after which bomber and kamikaze drones attacked.

In the exercise, a vehicle was deemed destroyed once a drone hovered above it or flew close enough to strike, so the vehicles were repeatedly reintroduced, according to a US official familiar with the results.

The brigade had standard electronic-warfare and counter-drone systems, while newer mobile units reportedly performed better and US troops adapted their camouflage, force distribution and electronic warfare, according to the WSJ.
