On June 1st, Ukraine launched a massive drone operation from inside Russia that targeted strategic bombers and other vital aircraft.

The operation was a success, eliminating at least 13 Russian bombers, or about 34% of their fleet, and resulting in no Ukrainian casualties. While this was a huge victory for Ukraine, it highlights major vulnerabilities facing the United States and others.

We break down how Ukraine pulled off Spider's Web, what Russia lost, and what the US is doing now and will need to do to protect against this low-cost, high-effect tactic.
