Tanks Were Just Tanks, Until Drones Made Them Change

By Marco Hernandez and Thomas Gibbons-Neff

Sept. 8, 2025

When Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in 2022, the two sides’ tank divisions looked much as they did during the Cold War.

Now, Russia’s and Ukraine’s Soviet-era tanks rumble across the battlefield covered in anti-drone nets and spikes, dangling chains and unwieldy cages.
