Over the course of the month of August, Russia launched more than 2,800 jet-propelled drones at Ukraine, a type of drone that is harder to shoot down. That has come with a massive uptick in the number of drones used, considerind those now found on the frontline are quite a new model: Ukrainian authorities say they are pressed into service almost immediately after leaving the factory.
