The 52nd Separate Reconnaissance Battalion (MUN A4128) is a battalion of the Ukrainian ground forces acting as an independent unit, formerly subordinated to the 68th Jaeger Brigade. It has seen combat during the Russo-Ukrainian war, initially as a rifle battalion and has been performing reconnaissance and combat operations throughout the entire front. It was established in June 2022.

History

The battalion was established in June 2022[1] and was mainly composed of volunteers from the Carpathian region who joined the ranks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.[2] In the summer of 2022, it was deployed along the Ukraine-Belarus border and later saw combat during the Battle of Vuhledar, Battle of Pavlivka and the Battle of Avdiivka as part of the 68th Jaeger Brigade.[3]

In May 2025, it received six quadcopters from the Ivano-Frankivsk Regional Military Administration.[4]
