Russian soldiers on the Russia-Ukraine front line showed a FPV suicide drone they used to transport by motorcycle, with about 30 FPV suicide drones fixed on a metal rack on the motorcycle.
In the Russia-Ukraine conflict, both sides have extensively used off-road motorcycles. Motorcycles are small and fast, suitable for quickly moving personnel, equipment or intelligence in complex terrains (such as urban ruins, forest paths or muddy fields), avoiding being locked by enemy drones or artillery. Compared to cars or armored vehicles, motorcycles have smaller noise and thermal signals, especially more stealthy during night operations, reducing the probability of being discovered by the enemy. At the same time, motorcycles have extremely low fuel consumption, making them more sustainable in battlefield environments where fuel is scarce. Both sides' frontline forces often use motorcycles to transport ammunition, medical supplies or food, especially when transportation routes are cut off by artillery fire, motorcycles can complete the "last mile" delivery through narrow paths.
