Components from 45 countries were found in the armament of Russian Geranium-3 kamikaze drones, Russian media reported, citing sources.
Chinese Telefly JT80 turbojet engines are used in the creation of the drone, thanks to which the UAV is able to fly at a speed of 300 to 370 km/h. At the same time, the estimated operational range is up to 1000 km.
In total, 45 foreign components were identified in these turbojet-powered drones, including from the USA, China, Germany and Japan.
