Ukrainian forces are utilizing innovative tactics, such as using fiber optic fpv drones, electronic warfare systems, and heavy drones for precision mining of Russian logistical routes. Russia is also employing new strategies, including recruitment efforts and the use of advanced drones and anti-vehicle landmines. ### Engagements: XXXXXXX [#](/creator/twitter::1640201327140806661/interactions)  - X Week XXXXXXXXX +29% - X Month XXXXXXXXX -XX% - X Months XXXXXXXXXX +104% - X Year XXXXXXXXXXX +236% ### Mentions: XX [#](/creator/twitter::1640201327140806661/posts_active)  - X Week XX -XX% - X Month XXX -XXXX% - X Months XXXXX +112% - X Year XXXXX +58% ### Followers: XXXXXX [#](/creator/twitter::1640201327140806661/followers)  - X Week XXXXXX +1.30% - X Month XXXXXX +4.10% - X Months XXXXXX +42% - X Year XXXXXX +166% ### CreatorRank: XXXXXX [#](/creator/twitter::1640201327140806661/influencer_rank)  ### Social Influence **Social category influence** [countries](/list/countries) XXXXX% [technology brands](/list/technology-brands) XXXX% **Social topic influence** [drones](/topic/drones) #387, [ukraine](/topic/ukraine) #180, [strike](/topic/strike) #1887, [target](/topic/target) #2056, [future](/topic/future) 3.51%, [russia](/topic/russia) #2427, [china](/topic/china) #3839, [the british](/topic/the-british) 1.75%, [ajax](/topic/ajax) 1.75%, [command](/topic/command) XXXX% **Top accounts mentioned or mentioned by** [@vmaxpax](/creator/undefined) [@giammaiot2](/creator/undefined) [@r39ister](/creator/undefined) [@bigtinybird](/creator/undefined) [@benlp9](/creator/undefined) [@star_excelsior](/creator/undefined) [@david_hambling](/creator/undefined) [@massiasthanos](/creator/undefined) [@coviddone](/creator/undefined) [@gakpdx](/creator/undefined) [@lupuslupus](/creator/undefined) [@alexanderens](/creator/undefined) [@chriso_wiki](/creator/undefined) [@grumpybadger5](/creator/undefined) [@ole1577622](/creator/undefined) [@vdanidavkoplace](/creator/undefined) [@lem0nabg](/creator/undefined) [@amaraouati](/creator/undefined) [@ghostofmazepa](/creator/undefined) [@srdanva](/creator/undefined) ### Top Social Posts Top posts by engagements in the last XX hours "FPV fiber optic cable vignettes near the small Ukrainian city of Huliaipole" [X Link](https://x.com/GrandpaRoy2/status/1996076167502397634) 2025-12-03T04:36Z 38.8K followers, 28K engagements "The British Army Ajax armored reconnaissance vehicle program has been plagued with severe vibration and noise problems that have actually been harmful to the crew.
