Can anyone answer the obvious question is the DRO tech the solution the Russian army in this context would be looking for? It would follow that this should be the single best advertisement for other coalition forces to stock up on the tech?

Specialist drone unit picks off invading forces as they sleep
An elite Ukrainian drone unit has destroyed dozens of “priority targets” by attacking Russian
forces as they sleep.
Aerorozvidka, an air reconnaissance unit within the army, has been picking off tanks, command
trucks and vehicles carrying electronic equipment since the invasion began.
“We strike at night, when Russians sleep,” said Yaroslav Honchar, the unit’s commander, from his
base of operations in Kyiv.
Russian forces are static when night falls, he explained, with their fear of Ukrainian shelling
forcing them to hide their tanks in villages between houses, knowing that conventional artillery
cannot risk hitting civilians.
But immobile convoys are the prime targets of Aerorozvidka, which has 50 squads of expert
drone pilots.
Using heavy-duty octocopter drones – modified to drop anti-tank grenades and to see with
thermal cameras – the darkness is their greatest advantage.
“In the night it’s impossible to see our drones,” said an Aerorozvidka soldier, who asked not to be
named for security reasons.
“We look specifically for the most valuable truck in the convoy and then we hit it precisely and
we can do it really well with very low collateral damage – even in the villages it’s possible. You
can get much closer at night.”
