The Ukraine war proved the importance of drones changing the game of modern warfare.

Recently, as drones have broken down boundaries with missiles and have powerful killing power, countries have launched a gunless war to secure drones.

Grozny, the capital of the Chechen Republic of Russia.

A drone flies above the sky and hits the building as it is.

The strong explosive power of the self-destructive drone makes the scene chaotic.

Through the war in Ukraine, drones have rapidly emerged as a "game changer" that upends the military balance.

Ukraine's recently unveiled new secret weapon, Pecklo, has even broken the boundaries between drones and missiles.

With a range of 700 kilometers, it is more than twice as long as the long-range missiles 'Atax' and 'Storm Shadow' provided by the United States and Britain.

In other words, it can freely strike the heart of the enemy Russia.

China unveiled a super-sized drone carrier called a drone aircraft carrier at an air show last month, putting the U.S. and Taiwan on edge.

This is because it can transport thousands of 6-ton missiles and drones, enabling huge volume attacks.

Taiwan envisions a 'hellish island' operation to prevent access to the mainland by mobilizing thousands of bombing drones in case of emergency, but
It is struggling to produce drones because it is behind China, which has dominated the
market.

In response to North Korea's threat of disclosing the performance of self-destructive drones, South Korea has also introduced Polish self-destructive drones and is speeding up the development of cluster drones and attack drones.

Countries around the world are fighting a war without guns to secure drones that have proven both economical and efficient.
