The 412th NEMESIS Regiment of the Unmanned Systems Force (SBS) has been upgraded to brigade level, in an expansion that will enable the creation of units specialized in naval drones and new robotic platforms. According to the brigade’s press service, the unit advanced from battalion to brigade status in less than two years. During this period, NEMESIS was responsible for about 20% of the damage inflicted on Russian air defense systems in occupied territories and for the destruction of enemy equipment worth approximately $3 billion. “Since December 2024, the 412th NEMESIS Regiment has ranked among the top 10, and since June 2025, among the top 5 in the DELTA classification of the most effective units within Ukraine’s Defense Forces,” the statement said. The transformation into a brigade will allow for the development of new capabilities, including the Middle Strike direction, featuring FPV drones, ground robotic systems, and enemy UAV interceptors. The unit will also begin operating naval drones, although their types and missions have not yet been officially disclosed. However, the promotional video released by the brigade features images of the Magura V5, one of the main naval drone models used by Kyiv. “With an expanded staff and arsenal, the brigade will be able to scale up operations and bring its effectiveness to a new level,” the statement added. The expansion of NEMESIS was first announced in early October by Robert “Magyar” Brovdi, commander of Ukraine’s Unmanned Systems Forces, as part of a large-scale strategic reorganization aimed at strengthening offensive capabilities.
