Unusual behavior of Geran and Gerbera drones has been observed in the sky. Before approaching their targets, the devices began to perform sharp maneuvers, change altitude, and move sideways instead of their usual straight-line dive. Foreign sources attribute this to another software update and changes in drone control algorithms.
According to published data, revised behavior scenarios for the final segment of the trajectory have been uploaded to the drone control systems. These maneuvers are intended to complicate the work of air defense systems and make it difficult to intercept targets directly before impact.
It is noted that the new algorithms allow the devices to perform anti-aircraft zigzags and sharply change altitude in close proximity to the attack object. Because of this, the flight trajectory looks unusual and differs from the patterns observed previously.
Experts point out that such software updates are becoming one of the key directions in the development of strike drones. Even without significant design changes, manufacturers can significantly increase the effectiveness of the devices through new navigation models, course correction, and automatic threat evasion.
Earlier, "Pervyy Tekhnicheskiy" reported that Russian military personnel began to use the new ORG-1 munition on Molniya-2 aircraft-type drones.
