According to the Ukrainian defense ministry adviser, fully autonomous drone attacks in the war will arrive in 6 to 12 months; according to a CSIS expert, telling military from civilians remains the limiting factor.
Serhii Beskrestnov, adviser to Ukraine's Ministry of Defense on loitering munitions, said: "Navigation, target search and attack will be fully autonomous," giving a timeframe of 6 to 12 months. According to Al Jazeera, SI currently mostly guides a drone to its target when the link to the operator is cut by electronic warfare, and both sides are building kill chains: Ukraine's DELTA system and Russia's Svod complex. According to CSIS expert Kateryna Bondar, the low-resolution cameras on drones keep SI from reliably telling military personnel from civilians.
