Bottom line

Russian milblogger Boris Rozhin reports the Rubicon Centre conducted FPV-AD and Molniya-AD interceptor operations against Ukrainian drones on 27 Oct 2026.

Why it matters

Russian forces are actively employing dedicated FPV and Molniya interceptor drones for both air defense and logistics/mining roles, indicating a maturation of counter-UAV tactics beyond static EW.

Russian milblogger Boris Rozhin reports that the Rubicon Centre logged FPV-AD and Molniya-AD interceptor operations against Ukrainian drones on 27 October 2026. Activities included day/night FPV-AD engagements, long-range drone interception, supply delivery, and remote mining of logistics routes across the Donbass, Krasno-Lyman, and Sumy directions. This is corroborated by Rybar, who shared combat footage of the Rubicon center intercepting enemy drones.
