About Unit

411th Regiment of Unmanned Systems is a unit of the Ukrainian Unmanned Systems Forces.

The unit was formed in 2022, following the full-scale invasion of Ukraine, initially as a battalion. In December 2024, the battalion was expanded into a regiment, likely due to its wide range of drone systems for reconnaissance and striking of Russian forces on key frontline positions.

They have actively participated in combat operations in Kursk, Kharkiv, Luhansk, Donetsk, Zaporizhzhia, Kherson, and other frontline directions. As part of the massive reforms within the Ukrainian Defense Forces throughout 2025, the regiment was assigned to the command of the 17th Army Corps.

Specialists of the regiment were also the developers of the “Tower” platform, which collects, decrypts, and analyzes information. The Hawks Drone Camp was also created at the initiative of the regiment, a drone school specializing in training aerial reconnaissance specialists and FPV drone pilots.

On November 1, 2025, the unit was transferred from the Territorial Defense Forces to the Unmanned Systems Forces.
