The video of China using a swarm of kamikaze drones is nothing more than a demonstration of flank attacks by the attacking side.
First, a massive swarm attack by drones is carried out on the flanks to disrupt the enemy’s battle formations, and then an advancing group of troops is put into action for a further breakthrough with the goal of reaching the enemy’s rear and encircling it (creating a cauldron).
“If the attacker sees that he is able to achieve his goal without attacking the enemy’s positions, then attacking would be a mistake.
If a position prevents the attacker from achieving his goal, the question arises whether it is possible to force the enemy to abandon his position by threatening his flank.
Only after this means has proved ineffective is it decided to attack a good position, and then an attack on the flank usually presents fewer difficulties.
The choice of one or the other flank depends on the position and direction of the retreat routes of both opponents, i.e. on the possibility of creating a threat to the enemy’s retreat or ensuring one’s own.”
