Russian Ground Forces Orion (Inokhodets) Fleet Update

Oryx documented the destruction of three Russian Kronshtadt Orion combat drones on 23 June 2026, each supported by photographic evidence of the wreckage. The circumstances were not stated in the entries. Three losses of the type on a single day were unprecedented in the war; Oryx had confirmed eleven Orion losses in the preceding four years. A fourth Orion was documented destroyed three days later. The medium-altitude long-endurance type is Russia's main armed reconnaissance drone over Ukraine.
