The DIU released video of soldiers training with Magura naval drone variants capable of launching 8 FPV quadcopters or 4 fixed-wing UAVs, with strike ranges up to 15 km and 45 km respectively.

I wonder if they are building ground versions too. I have seen some simple ground drones but are they as capable as those naval drones? Imagine russia would lose their jets over the front lines because of small drones they can't spot that easy.

Small drones can’t intercept jets. They’re just too slow. In theory they can work against helicopters, but I think there’s only been one or two such cases.

I think they mean by arming them with sidewinders or stingers

So, an unmanned aircraft carrier for unmanned aircraft!
