The Komanda Topota unit is known for its specialized role in intercepting and neutralizing russian Lancet drones. These loitering munitions are designed specifically to target Ukrainian military equipment, making them a persistent threat on the battlefield.

Ukrainian team's precise work in detecting and eliminating the Lancet UAVs represents a significant countermeasure to russia's ongoing reliance on UAV-based assaults. The operation not only blunted the offensive capabilities of russian drones but also provided critical protection to Ukrainian forces and equipment on the ground.

Beyond the Lancet drones, the team also successfully eliminated a variety of other russian drone types, including reconnaissance UAVs, aerial repeaters, bomb-dropping drones, and kamikaze models. This wide-ranging capability highlights the flexibility and growing technological edge of Ukrainian UAV warfare.

As Defense Express previously reported, Ukrainian Air Force successfully targeted and destroyed a russian surface-to-air missile system during a recent combat mission. The strike was executed in support of a broader fighter operation.

The attack centered around a Ukrainian Su-27 fighter jet, which launched the AGM-88 HARM at the russian air defense system. The HARM missile, designed specifically to home in on enemy radar emissions, struck with deadly accuracy, resulting in the detonation of the SAM system's ammunition stores.
