The Ukrainian military is already using the Pasika system developed by Sine Engineering, which enables a single operator to control five drones simultaneously.

Details: The system enables drones to take off one after another and navigate autonomously to a designated location without relying on GPS. Brave1 says the drones can also operate despite enemy electronic warfare (EW) interference.

Quote: "The system autonomously calculates optimal routes for the group while preventing mid-air collisions."

Details: During the flight, the drones maintain their orientation thanks to secure communication, even when the enemy actively uses EW systems.

The entire group is controlled through a single interface, so the operator does not have to continuously monitor each drone individually.

Quote: "All units are managed via a single interface – the operator steps in only during the terminal phase."

Details: Brave1 said troops from the Da Vinci Wolves Battalion of the 59th Separate Motorised Infantry Brigade were among the first to begin using Pasika regularly for logistics operations.

Quote: "The impact was immediate: cargo deliveries doubled within just one month of using Pasika."

Details: Brave1 is continuing its cooperation with military units and manufacturers to scale up the technology.
