Ukraine’s creative Spider's Web operation sets example for Western armies, NATO says

He said this in an interview with AFP.

Vandier called Ukraine’s Spider’s Web operation a “true Trojan horse.” He believes NATO armies should learn from Ukraine’s “creativity.”

“What the Ukrainians did in Russia was a Trojan horse - and the trojan horse was thousands of years ago. Today, we see this kind of tactic being reinvented by technical and industrial creativity,” he said.

According to him, this operation demonstrated how important it is to implement innovations and adapt to win, as modern warfare is changing at lightning speed.

“It was a real coup. We are entering a dynamic era where armies must rely on both major planning but also adaptive planning,” the admiral added.

• In a bold daylight operation on June 1, Ukraine’s Security Service launched a massive drone assault on Russian military airfields.
• NATO sources anonymously stated that the Ukrainian SBU Spider's Web operation was indeed large and that 40 Russian aircraft were damaged.
