A Ukrainian company is working on a new FPV drone with a 100-km reach, leveraging fiber-optic tethering to overcome electronic jamming. Current FPVs depend on radio signals and are easily disrupted. Fold’s design uses cable connectivity while retaining the affordability and effectiveness of small quadcopters, which can deliver explosives against vehicles. The innovation could double current operational ranges and ensure effectiveness in electronic warfare-heavy environments, giving Ukrainian forces another edge against Russian defenses.
