" I've been preparing for this. Now I mainly work on drones and do everything related to them: piloting, reconnaissance, targeting, destroying the enemy. Drones are the most important element of this war, on which a lot of the work of other units depends. Yes, and the drones themselves also cause huge damage.. So their importance is hard to overestimate.. Fortunately, in this matter we greatly outnumber the enemy..

We carry out tasks in the places where we are sent. When you fly a drone, a fight can start at any moment, you can stumble upon an enemy.

I work in close proximity to the enemy and I know the basics about how to defend myself.. I continue to walk with weapons, to train. If I get into a fight, I have to be able to do everything," ua.
