Saw that clip of Su-30's dropping bombs on USV's.. Like i really wish Russians can have some weapon in class of Brimestone to deal with such targets. N011M have indeed MTI capability to spot moving target, what needed next is some standoff weapon and maybe a targeting pod to identify the target visually and from relatively safe altitude.

Kh-31A/AD can be used but, doesnt seem tobe a good tradeoff

Aircraft should be able to launch interceptor drones and loitering munitions from under the wings. You need to develop a new generation of air launched attack drones. Not just fighters and bombers but for helicopters and turboprop patrol aircraft. For example, a Lancet style drone launched from an Su-30 or even from a Mi-28.

Footage of a Russian M-28NM helicopter using an X-39 LMUR guided missile in combat in Ukraine. These missiles are also used by Ka-52 helicopters. The video was filmed in the village of Krasny Liman in the Donbas. The X-39 missile struck a Ukrainian drone control center located in an abandoned building.

Footage of Russian Italmas drone strikes on two Ukrainian Su-27 fighter jets and an F-16 fighter jet at the Myrhorod airfield. Previously, another Ukrainian F-16 fighter jet was attacked by Italmas drones at the Kirovohrad airfield.
Worth noting, Ukrainian F-16 fighter jets are presumably decommissioned and are being used to train engineering technicians and perform aircraft maintenance. For long-range operation, the Italmas drones have been equipped with Starlink terminals. Russia's Izdeliye-54 drone, also known as the Italmas, is designated the BM-35 in Ukraine.

Footage of a Russian Iskander-M ballistic missile striking a Ukrainian HIMARS MLRS near the village of Volodarovka in the Kharkiv region. A second strike by a Russian Iskander-M ballistic missile struck Ukrainian S-300 air defense positions near the village of Volnyansk. It's worth noting that the S-300 air defense system is virtually incapable of intercepting Iskander-M missiles. They are a difficult target even for the S-400 air defense system. Judging by the video, the S-300 air defense systems were hit; even the scattering of the missiles is visible. Assessing the damage to the HIMARS MLRS is difficult.

Russian Molniya drones have begun to be used in Ukraine for remote mining. The video shows a Molniya drone dropping a PTM-3 anti-tank mine; the location is not disclosed. The PTM-3 anti-tank mine is a 4.9 kg engineered munition adopted by the USSR in 1985. The PTM-3 mine is designed to disable wheeled and tracked vehicles with a shaped-charge jet, destroying the undercarriage. The mine's warhead weighs 1.8 kg. Its operational life is up to 24 hours, after which it self-destructs.

Footage of the Russian army using Krasnopol-M 152mm precision-guided projectiles in combat in the Donbas. The projectiles are used by a Russian 2S19 Msta-S self-propelled howitzer from the 1st Krasnodar Division of the 238th Guards Artillery Brigade. The video shows Krasnopol-M projectiles striking Ukrainian drone control centers and temporary military deployment sites located in houses in the village of Ilyinovka in the Donbas. A Russian Orlan-30 UAV from the 439th Rocket Artillery Brigade provides reconnaissance and target illumination.
