   Although we don’t know specifically which counterdrone systems are being   
   deployed by the Ukrainians, the images of the destroyed drones tell a   
   compelling story. In the drone war, many of the flyers on both sides have been   
   captured or destroyed on the    
   ground, but more than half were disabled while in flight. The destroyed   
   Ukrainian drones often show tremendous damage, including burn marks and other   
   signs that they were shot down by a Russian surface-to-air missile. A logical   
   conclusion is that the    
   Russians’ electronic counterdrone systems were not effective. Meanwhile, the   
   downed Russian drones are typically much more intact, showing relatively minor   
   damage consistent with a precision strike from a laser or electromagnetic   
   pulse. This is exactly    
   what you would expect if the drones had been dispatched by one of the newer   
   Western counterdrone systems.   
      
   In the first three weeks of this conflict, Russian drones have failed to   
   achieve the level of success that they did in 2014. The Ukrainians, on the   
   other hand, have logged multiple victories with drone and counterdrone forces   
   assembled in just 8 years.    
   The Russian drones, primarily domestically sourced, have been foiled   
   repeatedly by NATO counterdrone technology
