The Russian loitering munition "Lancet-E", developed by Zala Aero (part of the Kalashnikov concern), has become known worldwide due to its successful use in real combat conditions. This was stated by the Federal Service for Military-Technical Cooperation (FSMTC) of Russia at the MILEX 2025 exhibition in Minsk.
The FSMTC noted that the "Lancet-E" has great export potential. Interest in the development has been shown by countries of the CSTO, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, Africa, and Latin America.
The "Lancet" is also receiving a lot of attention in the foreign market, but today there is a high demand for it from the Armed Forces of Russia.
The "Lancet-E" complex is an export version of the "Lancet" guided munitions carrier. It includes the Z-16-E reconnaissance drone and 2 guided munitions carriers: "Product 51-E" and "Product 52-E".
