The cited source does not say that the developers of the Kukushka drone, plural, were sent to their deaths en masse.

In the father’s quoted post, he refers to his son in the singular: "my son, the developer of the heavy drone 'Kukushka'". He then says that his son’s former UAV unit was pulled from combat-duty roles and that most of that unit was sent into assault missions. That is materially different from saying that the developers of Kukushka were sent to their deaths en masse.

So this X post overstates what the father actually claimed in two ways:

1. It changes one named developer / his former UAV unit into the developers of Kukushka.
2. It turns a claim that most of a former UAV detachment was reassigned into a much broader claim that multiple drone developers were sent to die.

That distinction matters because the father’s own wording, as reproduced in the available source, is narrower than the post’s wording.

This sentence turns the father’s speculation into a definite claim.

In the father’s quoted post, he says there are several possible versions of what happened: "from banal betrayal, elimination of an inconvenient person to the obvious reason of money." He also writes that it "creates the impression" that his son could have been killed by his own side, and elsewhere says that even if his son was not killed by them directly, commanders took actions that made his death likely.

That is not the same as saying he said they were deliberately killed because they were viewed as inconveniences by commanders. The available source shows uncertainty, multiple hypotheses, and speculation about his son, not a firm statement that multiple men were deliberately killed for being inconvenient.
