About Unit

108th Assault Battalion is a unit of the 59th Assault Brigade as part of the Ukrainian Unmanned Systems Forces.

It was initially formed as the 108th Mechanized Battalion in early 2024. Prior to this, the ‘Honor’ and ‘Ulf’ units departed from the 1st Assault Battalion ‘Da Vinci Wolves’ entirely. They would eventually go on to form the 108th Mechanized Battalion, which would then join the 59th Motorized Brigade.

In March 2025, following the 59th Motorized Brigade’s reformation into an assault unit in the Unmanned Systems Branch, the battalion was also reformed into an assault battalion, becoming the 108th Assault Battalion.
