Russia unveils new camera-guided strike drone similar to Lancet

The drone flies at an altitude of only about 200 meters

The Russian military has received new strike drones that visually resemble the Lancet, but are larger.

The drones operate at a low altitude, about 200 meters, making them more difficult to detect by mobile air defense groups. They are faster and more like a loitering munition than a Geran.

At the same time, the military unexpectedly used drones during the daytime. This is probably due to the new guidance method.

Most likely, the new drone is guided to the target not by GPS coordinates, but uses a built-in camera. The operator sees the image and controls the drone, with the help of a large reconnaissance aircraft such as the Orion, which hangs over the sea and relays the signal.

Earlier www1.ru reported that the world's largest Mi-26T helicopter was deconserved after 12 years of storage.
