The conflict, which pits regular and irregular Ukrainian forces against Russian-backed separatists in Eastern Ukraine, features the persistent adaptation of modern commercial technologies to the battlefield. Ukraine\u2019s ministry of defense released photos March 19 of a downed drone and its accompanying bomblet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mil.gov.ua\/news\/2019\/03\/19\/v-rajoni-provedennya-operaczii-obednanih-sil-vijskovosluzhbovczi-zbili-samorobnij-udarnij-bpla-voroga\/\" target=_blank>short notice<\/a> captures a portrait-oriented slice of what fighting looks like today. The Joint Forces Press Office claims that the drone was halted with electronic warfare, and then damaged by small arms fire. This is a marked improvement from the situation in the trenches of Donetsk four years ago, where drones <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/world\/national-security\/on-the-frontlines-in-ukraine-a-technological-gap\/2015\/08\/31\/8a62a94c-4b7c-11e5-84df-923b3ef1a64b_story.html\" target=_blank>deliberately drew fire from soldiers<\/a> in order to guide artillery strikes against their positions. Having jammers in place mitigates the scouting potential of the drones, and while it\u2019s not a perfect solution, it makes it easier for infantry to shoot down the flying scouts with whatever they have on hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The bomblet, too, is a fascinating demonstration of just what weapons a drone can actually carry. In January 2019, Ukraine\u2019s Joint Forces Operation reported an encounter with a drone carrying a fragmentation grenade that had <a href=\"https:\/\/www.unian.info\/war\/10414320-ukraine-forces-in-donbas-shoot-down-enemy-drone-equipped-with-fragmentation-explosives-video.html\" target=_blank>3D-printed parts<\/a>. Open-source analysts, examining this latest find in light of similar recovered munitions, tentatively <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/N_Waters89\/status\/1108045762397683724\" target=_blank>support that finding<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Quadcopters adapted to drop bombs is not new. We\u2019ve seen it in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.popsci.com\/isis-is-dropping-bombs-with-drones-in-iraq\" target=\"_blank\">Iraq with ISIS<\/a> and later with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bellingcat.com\/news\/mena\/2017\/03\/02\/iraqi-federal-police-using-weaponised-drones\/\" target=\"_blank\">Iraq\u2019s Federal Police<\/a>, and in Ukraine with militias on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.c4isrnet.com\/unmanned\/2018\/05\/02\/cry-mavic-and-let-slip-the-drones-of-irregular-war\/\" target=\"_blank\">both sides of the conflict<\/a>. The adaptation from earlier improvised shuttlecock-stabilizers to 3D-printed fins is new, though. It shows a progression from assembling weapons from what\u2019s cheap and available to designing the weapons around what can be cheaply yet deliberately manufactured.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s a stretch to call drones like this \u201cairpower.\u201d The DJI quadcopters used here are small and cheap, but are limited in range and flight time, often only having about 20 minutes of battery power for flight. That\u2019s without the added weight of a bomb and release mechanism, or any cameras used for targeting. What it is instead is a sort of novel, expendable and reusable style of munition delivery. Even if the drone is lost, it\u2019s only a setback of a few hundred dollars in flying machine. And with 3D printers on hand, parts can be replaced, and new casings for the drone\u2019s payload can be iterated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If this is the first reliably seen 3D-printed drone munition, it\u2019s extremely unlikely it will be the last.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>3D-printed drone bombs, halted with electronic warfare, illustrate the growing threat of hobbyist toys customized for warfare.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":56565,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_yoast_wpseo_meta-robots-noindex":"","_yoast_wpseo_meta-robots-nofollow":"","_yoast_wpseo_canonical":"","_acf":"","_yoast_wpseo_primary_category":21,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","_smg_distribution_targets":[]},"categories":[106,29,32,21,111],"tags":[],"coauthors":[3021],"class_list":["post-19335","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-daily-brief","category-home","category-newsletters","category-unmanned","category-unmanned-systems"],"acf":{"subheadline":"","legacy_arc_id":"ISIGRN6GC5DTHBB3DTMIM52EHE","arc_canonical_url":"\/unmanned\/2019\/03\/20\/ukraine-forces-encountered-3d-printed-drone-bombs\/","remove_feature_photo":false,"is_sponsored":false,"subtype":"","redirect_url":"","disable_inline_ads":false,"native_logo_pretext":"Presented By:"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.0 (Yoast SEO v28.1) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Ukraine experiences the future of war - C4ISRNet<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"3D-printed drone bombs, halted with electronic warfare, illustrate the growing threat of hobbyist toys customized for warfare.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/c4isrnet\/unmanned\/2019\/03\/20\/ukraine-forces-encountered-3d-printed-drone-bombs\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Ukraine experiences the future of war\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"3D-printed drone bombs, halted with electronic warfare, illustrate the growing threat of hobbyist toys customized for warfare.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/one.sightlinemg.com\/c4isrnet\/unmanned\/2019\/03\/20\/ukraine-forces-encountered-3d-printed-drone-bombs\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"C4ISRNet\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2019-03-20T19:08:42+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2026-08-08T18:12:19+00:00\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Kelsey D.
