00:01It's a system designed to boost battlefield performance.
00:05Ukrainian pilots steer a drone with controllers via a monitor, drop munitions or crash directly into targets.
00:14Their recordings are uploaded onto a program called Brave One, which are then verified and converted into points.
00:21The more soldiers killed or equipment destroyed, the more points are racked up.
00:25Troops can then convert points into new weapons or equipment for their units.
00:31Many are not hesitating to pick up the controllers.
00:35Everyone is motivated to kill the targets, first and foremost.
00:40It's interesting to criticize, but I think if they were in our place, they would understand what it's about.
00:46There's a war going on in our country, a war of destruction, so there's no mercy here.
00:52For the head of the program, many of his generation, now serving in the same unit, grew up with smartphones, making the transition to drone piloting easy.
01:03The idea behind this program is that in the first stage, we started awarding a certain number of bonuses or points for each enemy hit,
01:12tank destroyed or damaged, Russian enemy infantry killed or wounded, and aircraft or helicopter destroyed.
01:22It is something like tokens or coins.
01:26Critics say the program risks trivializing the violence of warfare.
01:30But the Ukrainian army claims the scheme has spurred competition among units and improved the military's ability to verify data on the destruction of Russian targets and boost battlefield awareness.
