Kamikaze drones controlled by fiber optic cable combine the best qualities of conventional kamikaze drones and anti-tank missile systems (ATGMs) with wired control. This was stated by military instructor Alexey.
According to him, in the zones of operation of electronic warfare (EW) systems, conventional kamikaze drones lose signal, while wired devices cannot be jammed.
Fiber optics is a salvation. With the help of electronic warfare, you can no longer jam us. At the same time, I can perform any maneuvers that are not available to ATGMs. I can slow down, escort equipment, hover and observe.
Although due to the fiber optic coil, a wired drone carries less payload, in return the operator receives a stable signal at all stages of the flight.
Earlier www1.ru reported that protective hangars for military aircraft were spotted on the Russian Aerospace Forces airbase online.
