Essential Disadvantage of the Lightning-2 Kamikaze Drone and TM-62M Mine Combat Duo Named

The combination will destroy the most protected fortifications, but the range of use is very short

Russian military personnel have equipped a high-payload kamikaze drone with a TM-62M anti-tank mine, capable of inflicting critical damage even to highly protected fortifications.

However, the large mass of the product significantly reduces the effective range of strike copters and Lightning-2 aircraft-type drones.

Despite this, anti-track mines with 8 kg of ammunition continue to be one of the most common tools used by UAV strike squadrons at a depth of 3-7 km from the line of combat contact.

The basic range of the Lightning-2 strike drone is up to 50 km.

Tactical and technical characteristics of TM-62M mines:

  • Body material — metal
  • Weight — 9.5-10 kg
  • Explosive weight — 7.5/8 kg
  • Diameter — 32 cm
  • Target sensor diameter — 9 cm
  • Application temperature range — from -50 --+50 degrees

Earlier www1.ru reported that Rosoboronexport's order portfolio exceeded $60 billion.
