Kofman said there was a big difference between the smaller drones Russia was using on the front line to move its forces forward and the one-way attack drones that were being used for the purposes of bombardment.“Despite all the damage that is being done, from what we know of efforts to win a war through bombardment, on its own it is not likely to succeed,” Kofman said. “This is no blitz, and the blitz wasn’t successful for Germany either.”Russia’s drone attacks began amping up last September, the first month in the war that Moscow sent more than 1,000 drones into Ukraine, according to a data set created by The New York Times using numbers from the Ukrainian air force.This year, the numbers have skyrocketed.Russia has so far sent more than 34,000 attack drones and decoys into Ukraine in 2025, nearly nine times the number from the same period last year, according to the Times data set. Of the drones Moscow has deployed this year, Ukraine said it had knocked down 88 per cent by shooting them or electronically scrambling them. That figure is down from the nearly 93 per cent Ukraine reported in 2024.Over one night the first weekend of this month, . Ukraine claimed to have knocked down about 92 per cent of them, but that still meant 63 got through. Ukraine said that 54 had hit targets in 33 different locations. The data could not be independently verified.Rescue workers comb through the rubble of a residential building in Kyiv, Ukraine, that was hit by an explosive Russian drone. Photograph: Brendan Hoffman/The New York Times Behind the overwhelming numbers is a revolution in drone production in Russia.Putin’s autocratic government has signalled from the very top that drones are a crucial priority for the nation, which has mobilised public and private resources to create a drone-making empire.At a recent economic forum in the Russian city of Vladivostok, nearly every Russian region participating included a display about the drones it was producing. Students and foreign workers have been brought in to manufacture drones. Russia has drawn on its warm relations with Iran and China for know-how and parts.Analysts estimate that Russia is now able to produce about 30,000 of the attack drones modelled on the Iranian design per year. Some believe the country could double that in 2026.The increases explain why Ukraine, despite developing sophisticated air defences and drone technology of its own, still suffers under Russian drone attacks.“The answer is simple and straightforward,” said Mykola Bielieskov, a military analyst at Ukraine’s government-run National Institute for Strategic Studies.[ Emboldened Putin mocks US peace efforts with biggest drone attack yetOpens in new window ]“They started from maybe hundreds a month, then 2,000 to 3,000 a month in the first quarter of this year, now with 5,000 to 6,000 a month,” he said of Russian drone incursions. “For sure, more of them are going to get through our air defences.”The drones have also advanced technologically, with better guidance systems, improved resistance to jamming and novel types of warheads.Russia has also changed its tactics. Moscow is sending the attack drones in swarms, or waves, and routing them in confusing paths to divert attention from actual targets. It is sending many more decoys, made of painted foam and plywood, which sometimes contain small warheads and are indistinguishable from actual drones in the sky. And it is bypassing the open fields where Ukrainian air-defence teams work, flying over rivers and forests instead. Once the drones enter cities, they are harder to shoot down because of tall buildings and the risks to civilians.As Russia started producing more attack drones and using more decoys, Ukraine scrambled to devise new ways to knock them down.Air-defence units have shot drones and decoys out of the sky. Mobile teams of soldiers in pickup trucks shoot down drones, often with heavy-duty machine guns. Ukraine also worked out how to jam drones electronically.Expensive high-tech systems provided by the West mainly protect big cities and key infrastructure and are primarily geared toward incoming missiles.[ Europe refuses to accept reality as Putin escalates war on UkraineOpens in new window ]Konrad Muzyka, a military analyst with Rochan Consulting in Poland, said he thought it was difficult to draw conclusions based on official Ukrainian numbers. He said the situation with Ukraine’s defences against drones might be worse than its airforce portrays. “I think they are shooting down fewer numbers of drones that they report on,” he said.It has been an ever-changing game of cat and mouse.As Russia started flying drones higher, Ukraine responded by employing cheap interceptor drones, equipped with radar. But their use is still limited, said Kofman, the Carnegie Endowment analyst.“If they can scale that, they can probably address the saturation problem over time,” he said. “It’s a matter of production and scaled deployment.”This article originally appeared in .RussiaUkraine crisisVladimir PutinNorth Atlantic Treaty Organisation (Nato)PolandRomaniaIN THIS SECTIONPolish president to push Berlin for help against Russian drone incursionsDrones, snipers and increased patrols: UK plans huge security operation for Trump visitRussia made drone production a supreme priority.
