Electronic warfare
Datalink override
Disruption or takeover of a drone's command-and-control radio link. Can cause the drone to loiter, return-to-home, or crash depending on its failsafe logic. The Kouvola (March 2026) and Nautrēni (June 2026) incidents both involved Russian EW acting on Ukrainian drone datalinks.
