It became known about the appearance in the Russian troops of a new modification of the «Geran-2» kamikaze drone. The drones began to be equipped with a high-explosive fragmentation warhead with an air detonation function, which will expand its combat capabilities.
The drone is equipped with a LiDAR laser rangefinder, which provides the possibility of detonation at a given altitude.
Presumably, the mass of the new warhead with a plastisol charge is 50 kilograms.
This improvement significantly expands the tactical capabilities of the drone. This is especially effective against clusters of manpower, unarmored vehicles and easily vulnerable objects, located, for example, in trenches or behind light shelters.
Air detonation allows you to significantly increase the radius of damage by fragments, which increases the likelihood of damage to the target.
Earlier www1.ru reported that a new «Lis-10» complex for protecting airfields from UAVs was presented at a forum in St. Petersburg.
