Therefore, Russia's announcement of the five-pointed star on the drone is likely to represent the achievement of destroying the ground target, and the destruction of a ground target will be painted with a five-pointed star.
Russia's move may also be a signal to the outside world that our drones are about to be put into the battlefield, or that we have achieved good results on the battlefield.
