      Ukraine's Come Back Alive Foundation estimates its Dronopad initiative has cost Russia roughly $1.39 billion in destroyed drones over two years, downing more than 53,000 Russian UAVs – half of them in the past four months alone. The campaign has armed over 90 frontline units with equipment worth more than $49 million. Crews are now bracing for faster, jet-powered strike drones that require new interception tools.
