Ukraine's new "Nemesis" drone, which uses Starlink, can fly up to 30 kilometers. The innovation in drone warfare is accurate, flexible, and tough for Russia to disrupt.

The use of drones has become a prominent feature in Russia's war in Ukraine, with both sides employing them to strike targets.

Ukraine's new generation of drones, such as "Nemesis," is starting to change the way this war is being fought.

With the help of Starlink internet access, pilots no longer have to be close to the drone they're controlling and can instead operate from just about anywhere. The advancements in drone warfare reflect the increasing accuracy and flexibility, making it difficult for Russia to counter.
