The Danish Armed Forces plan to send unarmed troops to Ukraine for short-term training courses to study the country’s drone warfare tactics, Major General Peter Boysen, Denmark’s commander-in-chief, told state broadcaster TV 2 on April 16.

    Makes a lot of sense. Russia and Ukraine are really the only ones with modern drone warfare tactics. Granted if Russia attacks a NATO country the response and type of war will be different, but drones are going to play a big part either way.

          IDK about the US, but in this situation the Danes go to Ukraine to learn modern drone tactics.

            I said modern drone warfare tactics.

            Using a drone for a specialized op isn’t the same thing as sending 20-50 drones out at once amd having to defend against 50 drones a day type thing.

            Edit: nor having the infrastructure to deploy said modern tactics.

              You think the US has been involved in the war in Ukraine and has not used the information gathered to develop tactics and equipment equivalent to or better to Ukraine’s?

                I’m sure you can learn a lot by watching, but learning directly from those that actually do it is much better. Denmark is sending actual soldiers to learn.
