Ukraine's new top general is a 43-year-old maverick whose bold moves began 12 years ago with a 'flying' armored vehicle

Mykhailo Drapatyi, a 43-year-old Ukrainian general known for his innovative tactics and a viral 2014 'flying BMP' incident, was appointed the country's new commander in chief. His appointment followed protests demanding military reforms and the reinstatement of defense minister Mykhailo Fedorov, who was dismissed amid clashes with the previous commander.
