Ukraine has drones that can lock onto targets when Russia severs the connection to their operators, letting them complete their attacks

Ukraine employs drones equipped with a 'target lock' feature that enables them to autonomously continue and complete strikes even when operators lose control due to Russian electronic warfare disrupting communications. This capability is notably used in drones like Perennial Autonomy's Hornet, which relies on Starlink for connectivity but can maintain mission focus despite signal loss.
