AI-Assisted Ukrainian Drones Overcome Russian Jamming in Semi-Autonomous Strikes (euobserver.com)

• AI drones can autonomously engage targets after human designation, even with lost contact.
• Fully autonomous lethal strikes are rare due to policy and reliability concerns.
• The adaptation specifically counters Russian signal jamming.

"Ukrainian forces are using AI-enabled drones that can autonomously lock onto and pursue targets even when Russian electronic warfare cuts off communication. The drone flies to the front line, the pilot designates a target, and then the drone engages autonomously if jamming occurs. However, fully autonomous lethal strikes without human command remain rare due to policy and reliability concerns."
