2,000 kilometers of threat: Ukraine’s new T-40 drone is preparing hell for the Urals and Siberia (video commentary)

08/21/2026

Ukraine is turning combat experience into a technological edge. The new long-range drone Dolbush T-40 is capable of covering more than 2,000 km, while dozens of AI-powered systems are already helping Ukrainian forces operate even without GPS and under heavy electronic warfare (EW).

Fiber-optic FPV drones, interceptors and joint production with European partners are strengthening Ukraine’s defense potential. Meanwhile, strikes on Russian logistics are creating new problems for Russian military supply chains, while the Kremlin’s militarized economy is hitting ordinary Russians harder: prices are rising, consumption is falling, and war spending is straining the budget.
