Looking back, it should have been obvious\u2014the warning wasn\u2019t subtle.\u202fWhen I texted my friend, the frontline commander I called Fin\u2014I always used his army call sign, not his civilian name\u2014the screen stared back at me ominously: \u201cLast seen January 3, 2026\u201d\u2014at least three weeks earlier. I told myself it was nothing. He\u2019d probably changed his phone number or switched to a different carrier. But my explanations felt thinner and thinner as the hours ticked by. Finally, in the evening, I started texting others who knew him, and the news came the next day from his unit\u2019s press officer: \u201cCode 200. Fin has been killed in action.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Later that week, still battling shock and grief, I read in the media that Volodymyr Zelensky, long hesitant to reveal casualty figures, had finally gone public with a number. According to the president\u2019s office, 55,000 Ukrainians, volunteers and regular soldiers, have fallen in battle since the Russian invasion in February 2022. This is a tiny fraction of the enemy total. Ukrainian and Western analysts estimate 1.2 million Russians killed, wounded, and missing. But both numbers looked different to me in the stark light of my friend\u2019s sacrifice.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Volodymyr Barantsov, 52, born in the last decades of Soviet Ukraine, came of age in the tough, industrial city of Mykolaiv just as his country gained independence in 1991. One of his city\u2019s first entrepreneurs, pioneering capitalism in a stubbornly post-communist society, he founded and ran a series of small and then medium-sized businesses\u2014first wholesale grain trading, then agricultural services and financial consulting. By the time Russia invaded in 2022, he had built a comfortable life, with his own Kyiv-based management consulting firm and a teenage son. Like many Ukrainian men his age, he raced to join the armed forces\u2014his code name, Fin, was short for \u201cfinancial\u201d\u2014and was given command of a platoon fighting near Siversk. This fiercely contested frontline city has changed hands several times since the first Russian-backed fighting in Ukraine in 2014.\u00a0<\/p>\n

By the time I met him, after three years of war, Russian troops were on the verge of occupying Siversk, now reduced to rubble with almost no inhabitants, and the front was creeping west. A tall, well-built man with a graying beard and old-fashioned, chivalrous manners, Fin was based in nearby Sloviansk, where his platoon had grown into a company\u2014just under 100 men\u2014devoted to anti-drone defense. Another soldier fighting in the region brought the unit to my attention\u2014I might be interested in the scrappy, innovative ways they were using technology to bring down the enemy\u2019s unmanned aerial vehicles.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

Now dubbed \u201cSpektr,\u201d the electronic warfare company of the 54th separate mechanized brigade used spoofing, jamming, and whatever advanced equipment, Ukrainian or foreign, it could scrounge to take down Russian drones. According to one Ukrainian media report, the team suppressed up to 80 percent of everything the enemy threw at the area it was responsible for\u2014typically 100 to 130 unmanned aerial vehicles a day.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

I wrote about this cutting-edge work for the Monthly<\/em>. <\/em>Then Fin and I stayed in touch. He was interested in my work\u2014there seemed to be nothing he wasn\u2019t interested in\u2014and told me he was proud to be my friend. I introduced him to some European colleagues I thought might help him secure the advanced electronic equipment he coveted for his unit. We texted for the last time between Christmas and New Year\u2019s, just days before his death.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Last week, I traveled to the front to speak to his deputy, now commander of the company\u2014I wanted to know what Fin\u2019s men remembered about him and how he died.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

I was warned that the situation in Sloviansk was much more dangerous than when I visited last fall, and there was no mistaking the changes. The train from Kyiv, once filled with soldiers and women traveling to the front for a few stolen hours with their husbands, is no longer running. We drive the long way around on side roads to avoid the last 35-mile stretch of highway, now within range of deadly Russian UAVs. But even these smaller roads are swathed in protective netting designed to catch enemy incoming before it hits Ukrainian vehicles. A relentless barrage of drones and glide bombs has taken its toll on downtown Sloviansk. Still, the city is full of people\u2014fatigue-clad soldiers and the civilians who cater to them in caf\u00e9s, barbershops, and military supply stores.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The new commander, Viktor Saprykin, is much younger than Fin\u2014a hefty man with bristly dark hair and a scruffy beard. We meet in a caf\u00e9 where I once met Fin, and much of what the young soldier tells me aligns with what I remember about my friend.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The soldiers who served with Fin revered him. \u201cHe was a decent, honest man,\u201d Saprykin remembers, \u201cfair, brave, responsible, always searching for better solutions, and always looking out for his men.\u201d His number one goal was to \u201cprotect people\u201d\u2014his men and the civilians his unit was designed to keep safe. No detail was apparently too small\u2014from making sure the men had enough time off to taking risks himself so they didn\u2019t have to.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

I also remember Fin\u2019s determination to lead by example. The unit\u2019s advanced technology allowed it to hijack the navigational system of an incoming drone and crash it before it could do any harm. Then, if the UAV\u2019s explosive payload was intact, Fin would find it in the nearby fields or forest and defuse it. \u201cIt\u2019s a job only an officer should do,\u201d I recall him telling me. \u201cI wouldn\u2019t ask anyone else.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

His other passion, central to his mission to protect, was technological innovation. \u201cHe was always trying to do better,\u201d Saprykin tells me\u2014investigating new technologies, trying to acquire them for the unit, and adapting them for the changing battlefield. He enlisted me to connect with anyone I knew in the West\u2014soldiers, tech companies, military authorities\u2014who could provide the latest technology. He also complained bitterly about allies\u2014companies and countries\u2014who wouldn\u2019t share.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

His priorities: electronic warfare equipment, signal intelligence (SIGINT) software, advanced remote-control technology, and unmanned ground vehicles that could take over the toughest, most dangerous tasks now performed by him and his men. \u201cHe wanted to substitute robots for people,\u201d Saprykin recalls. \u201cThat\u2019s now the top goal across the Ukrainian armed forces, but he was way ahead.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

With new technology, Fin hoped, would come reform. Ever an entrepreneur, he chafed at central command and the hidebound rules that curtailed his work. He wanted to expand his company to battalion size\u2014more men, more equipment, and a broader reach\u2014to spread its innovative tactics and equipment. He thought the armed forces needed more layers of electronic anti-drone defenses and a flatter command structure to encourage bottom-up innovation.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

He was also intent on sharing what he learned on the battlefield with like-minded military authorities in Western Europe. \u201cEurope and the U.S. should start learning from us before it\u2019s too late,\u201d he warned me at our first meeting. \u201cThey\u2019ll either learn from our experience, or they\u2019ll learn on their own\u2014the hard way.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

Saprykin remembers his sense of humor and his faith. I remember how much he enjoyed his work, despite the dangers. My phone is full of videos he sent me. Some are typical of those produced by Ukrainian frontline units\u2014the destruction of an enemy target seen through the eyes of a Ukrainian drone, usually accompanied by pumping rock music. Others are more personal.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

One three-and-a-half-minute clip, a single tracking shot filmed by a second, unseen man, shows a fatigue-clad figure in a tawny field under a brilliant blue sky\u2014a perfect, crisp autumn day. Fin, in body armor and a helmet, kneels over a downed drone, and you can feel the tension as he defuses the device. Then he gets up and walks away briskly, followed by an explosion and some cursing by the cameraman. In the final frames, both men step into the shot to stamp out spreading flames. \u201cOn Sunday, we almost got blown up while demining an FPV drone,\u201d Fin wrote. \u201cBut God is watching over us.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

On Fin\u2019s last outing, Saprykin told me, my friend and a few other men made their way east from Sloviansk to the unit\u2019s first line of defense, less than two miles from enemy lines. I imagine something like the field in the video, but by January, it would have been covered in snow and much colder. The men huddled in a trench for a few moments. Then Fin climbed out to inspect an electronic jamming device his unit had hidden in nearby brush.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

The device was covered by protective netting, but an enemy drone stuffed with extra shrapnel waited for him in the canopy. Saprykin believes it was remotely controlled by a pilot at the other end of a fiber-optic cable\u2014anti-drone units are a priority target for both sides. Fin raised his hand to his face to protect himself as the device exploded, but it was no use. Shrapnel tore through his body\u2014first an arm, then his face and torso. He lived for a few minutes, but neither his men nor the medics at a nearby \u201cstabilization point\u201d could help him. A second soldier who accompanied him died three days later in a hospital in Dnipro.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Many 21st-century Westerners are nonplussed by the traditional belief that it\u2019s honorable to die for one\u2019s country. World War I poet Wilfred Owen called this notion \u201cThe old Lie.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n

But wartime Ukraine is different. It\u2019s not unusual to see people stop their cars and get out to kneel on the pavement when a soldier\u2019s cortege passes, and I doubt Fin would have lived his life any differently even if he had known how it would end. Among other reasons, he knew exactly what he was fighting for and why it mattered. \u201cSomeday,\u201d he wrote just weeks before he fell to a mutual friend in Germany, also an officer, \u201cI hope we will be able to work or serve together for a free Europe.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n
