More expensive military equipment being destroyed or damaged by cheap FPV drones. They must be saving a lot of precision artillery rounds Javelins and other expensive stuff by destroying all those billions of dollar's worth of Russian stuff for super cheap. If this shit keeps up there may be concerns expressed among arms dealers and military suppliers! They and other DIY s like drone boats are definitely cutting into their trade in a very big way! And it appears the Ukrainian drone effort is just really getting underway in earnest after some organizing and government backing.
It all adds up to an imminent Ukrainian breakthrough in the south and subsequent exploitation of the Russian rear, I expect a Russian collapse. These kinds of conversations are common on the Russian side and have been for a long time, but now they appear to be reaching the end of their rope. The strife at the top and Wagner's decapitation and the shuffling of generals for most of the war is evidence of this. Vlad is running everywhere he can safely get to trying to get support and arms and is cracking down at home in a big way, he fears a coup the most.
It will do about as much good.
