Between September and November , some 50% to 60% of Russian drones were merely decoys.

The decoys are smaller and cheaper than the Iranian -made Shahed kamikaze drones that Russia uses extensively.

Their deployment is intended to saturate and confuse Ukrainian radar, exhausting the country's air defences.
