“Simple Chinese-made commercial quadrocopters have made a real revolution in the use of traditional cannon and rocket artillery, almost completely solving the age-old problem of reconnaissance, target designation and artillery fire adjustment,” Baluyevsky is quoted by RIA Novosti.

According to him, adjusting the target with the help of a quadrocopter made it possible to use artillery with conventional projectiles with accuracy and efficiency comparable to firing precision-guided munitions.

Earlier, the authorities of the Donetsk People's Republic banned the use of drones for the duration of the special operation.
