TL;DR Summary
Ukrainian drone operators are striking Russian supply trucks, air defenses, and critical infrastructure deep behind the front lines in a campaign dubbed Logistics Lockdown, aided by long-range strikes on Moscow's oil refineries. These attacks force Russia to redeploy air-defense assets, creating fuel and munition shortages that slow advances and sometimes cede ground. The article argues that a drone-heavy future war would upend U.S.-style logistics, underscoring the need for more resilient, adaptable supply chains and persistent ISR.
