Russian "Geran-2" strike drones continue to master new flight modes to targets. More and more videos are appearing online showing loitering munitions moving at extremely low altitudes.
The Telegram channel "Military Informant" reported that such pilotage is necessary in order for winged kamikaze drones to become inconspicuous to enemy air defense systems.
Low altitude significantly complicates firing with anti-aircraft weapons from the ground.
Last month, it became known that the "Geran-2" in "hill" mode increased the practical ceiling of flight altitude to 8500-10000 m and dive speed. In the gasoline version of the drone, the maximum speed reaches 200 km/h.
Drones have learned to identify zones of suppression and spoofing GPS signals, as well as record video and instantly assess the results of the hit.
Earlier www1.ru reported that the innovative fiber optic drone "Knyaz Vandal" will be produced under franchise in various regions of Russia.
