    That’s addressed in the video. This is more likely aimed at disrupting target identification from low quality photo/video like drones or wide angle satellites.

      So they’re trying to camouflage against the milbloggers? Ukraine isn’t using google maps for their targeting decisions.

      Might it confuse a drone driver a little? Perhaps. To be honest those cope cages maybe could have defeated a loitering munition that might otherwise have attacked an opened hatch. I suspect the benefit is going to be extremely marginal though.
