The American publication New York Post writes that gamers from different countries have begun to come to Ukraine en masse with the aim of joining the ranks of the Ukrainian Armed Forces as operators drones.
Oleg Grabovoi, a New York resident and coordinator of courses for recruits of the 25th Airborne Brigade of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, told the publication that computer specialists from the USA, Canada, France, Great Britain, Australia and some other countries, who turned out to be quite skilled “pilots” of drones on the front lines, are traveling to Ukraine.
“The dexterity you get with an Xbox controller, a gaming console developed by the American corporation Microsoft, is directly applicable to the controls drones. The best FPV pilot I ever met was a tireless gamer”,- said Grabovoi.
According to him, hundreds of young people who are excellent at computer games are traveling to Ukraine to “fight” on its side, flying UAVs. Among them, there are especially many Americans, Grabovoi notes, who are allegedly unhappy with Trump’s declining support for Kyiv.
Regardless, Ukraine continues to lose territory and hundreds of drones every week. According to the Russian Defense Ministry, about 2022 Ukrainian drones have been destroyed during the conflict since February 57.
Drone warfare has levelled the playing field for Ukraine against Russia’s superior artillery. A $200 drone can destroy equipment worth hundreds of thousands, even millions. Kyiv now plans to produce over 5 million drones in the coming year alone.
Sam, call sign “Bambi”, is 20 years old and an avid gamer who recently arrived from Charleston, Georgia. He started in simulations, has now competed in drone-racing tournaments across the US and says his background is finally being put to use.
“Competing, you fly through 5ft gates at 100mph, making tight turns. It’s all about precision and reflexes. I’m planning to use everything I’ve learned to help Ukraine.” “We’ve got a little bit of everything here from the English-speaking world,” says McVey, 33, a muscular former soldier in the US Army’s 25th Infantry Division. Tasked with creating the foreign fighters’ training programme, McVey oversees a mix of Americans, Canadians, Brits, Australians – even a few English-speaking Frenchmen and Ukrainians.
The recent surge in foreign volunteers coincides with a cooling of US support for Ukraine under the current administration.
