Russian "Gerbera" drones are not capable of imitating strategic Kh-101 and tactical Kh-69 cruise missiles for enemy air defense systems, but they are effective due to their low cost. This was stated by military expert Evgeny Damantsev.
According to him, the mass-dimensional parameters, combined with the widespread use of composite materials in the architecture of gliders, provide the products with an effective reflecting surface of about 0.03 - 0.01 m², minimizing the detection range by means of detection radars and TRML-4D target designation of IRIS-T SLM complexes to 17 - 15 km.
In addition, the detection range of the "Gerbera" by German radar guidance systems of the "Skynex" anti-aircraft artillery systems, equipped with AHEAD programmable ammunition, is significantly reduced in difficult meteorological conditions.
Nevertheless, "Gerbera" drones are not capable of imitating strategic Kh-101 and tactical Kh-69 cruise missiles, since their flight speed is limited to 220 - 250 km/h, while the speed of the above-mentioned missiles varies in the range from 0.65 to 0.95M.
Earlier www1.ru reported that the Russian army reduced the losses of Supercam reconnaissance drones to almost zero. UAV operators know in advance where the enemy's air defense and electronic warfare points are located.
