EXPOSED: Putin's 'crown jewel' turning into a catastrophe | Battle Plans

Ukraine has launched its largest drone attack on Moscow since the war began, signalling a massive turning point on the frontline. In this episode of Battle Plans Exposed, military expert and former intelligence planner Philip Ingram breaks down how Kyiv has achieved total drone superiority. We expose the desperate reality of Russian tactics—from commanders forcing specialised drone operators into frontline infantry "meat grinder" assaults, to troops riding unprotected quad bikes into catastrophic drone ambushes. Meanwhile, Ukraine is executing a cold, calculated siege of Crimea, blinding Russian air defences by wiping out billion-pound S-400 radar systems and cutting off vital logistical lifelines. Plus, we take an exclusive look at the groundbreaking domestic hardware driving this shift: the new jet-powered Boris cruise missile drone capable of striking 800km deep into Russia, and Kyiv's brand-new, indigenously developed guided aerial glide bomb.
