This drone is frequently used in US Army training exercises. However, in July 2025, Perennial Autonomy – then called Swift Beat – made a deal to supply Ukraine with drones," and that, "Elite Ukrainian units like the Azov and Khartia Brigades have been posting images of Hornet drones striking Russian supply convoys;" ▪️While the US-made Hornet drones give Ukraine this ability, Russia has already been using AI-guided drones for battlefield air interdiction operations along with vastly greater numbers of FPVs, Geran, as well as many times more missiles, guided glide bombs, and guided rockets; ▪️While both sides have the ability to complicate each other's logistics - only Russia has the additional manpower, armor, and other equipment required to actually exploit it and translate it into territory gained and attrition imposed; Sources: BBC - Ukraine using AI drones to strike vital convoys supplying Russian troops (May 30, 2026): https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cdjp0n7rn41o France24 - Ukraine: How a kamikaze drone partially operated by AI is attacking Russian convoys (Jun. 1, 2026): https://www.france24.com/en/europe/202606… ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/the-new-atlas-previously-land-destroyer-on-odysee-6857554/episodes/us-gives-ukrainian-nazis-ai-guided-drones-why-these-are-not-game-changers/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/the-new-atlas-previously-land-destroyer-on-odysee-6857554/us-gives-ukrainian-nazis-ai-guided-drones-why-these-are-not-game-changers.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
