“This is a drone war,” said James Challice, a Canadian Forces veteran who is fighting with a Ukrainian Army brigade in the Donetsk oblast. “Every drone is armed and they are used every minute of the day. Most deaths are from drones — either directly or from corrective fire from mortars. We will not move without drone surveillance.”
It is understood that the Ukrainian government has specifically requested the Skyranger but the Canadian government has yet to oblige. Challice, the 42-year-old Coburg, Ont. native said he has become more scared of drones than he is of tank artillery. “I know that when I see a drone with no munitions on it, the artillery is coming, so there is no standing still anymore. It has changed the art of defensive lines.”Article content
