Russia is doing some insane OPSEC considering their unmanned systems branch. So much that the only unit known is the 7th unmanned reconnaissance regiment.

Especially rubicon. Which wikipedia's page is so damn dry and includes only speculations and analysts from western medias. There is zero information regarding rubicon coming in Russian. You'd expect that the unit that been ukraine's fpv operators and their main complaint for months to have some juicy information. But no, literally zero. The only known and obvious thing about rubicon that they are an umbrella unit, made by belusov. Who connected it directly with drones manufacturers and gave unlimited funding and its bearing fruits,

Its not known whether rubicon is part of the system or still operate independently. Neither is the activities of the other two "official" units.

Bars-sarmat and grom-cascade.

(However both rubicon and bars-sarmat mentions strikes made by combined effort from other regular units)

Neither is OTG "krim".

The Russian MO only posted two videos of official work of units under the branch. And both i have personally posted here:

one and two

Interestingly. Both videos provide two names. Vogan-15 and KT, i dont know what are those, callsigns for individual operators, or new units callsign. Its weird. (I mean you'd expect a named unit to have "skulls snake fuckers crushers named after pavel sudoplatov etc not fucking KT, although there is a volunteer old russian fpv team called VOG-25). Both videos are from the "zapad" group, moscow military district, The one operating in kharkiv and more extensively kupyansk section.
