According to a representative of the Ministry of Defense, Ukrainian intelligence concluded that the Russians began to invest more money in the production of barrading ammunition. "Everything that can pose a threat to our troops is concerned," the Ministry of Defense chairman said. A Russian company Zala, which is a member of the Kalashnikov concern, worked on the lancet drone. The system is used to defeat terrestrial equipment and other purposes.
Lancat has a relatively small battle charge - up to two kg. The consequences of its use are not so destructive compared to rockets or shells. But for Ukrainian air defense, these UAVs are one of the most difficult tasks. Lancet drones have been armed with Russian troops since 2022, their range is 40 km, speed - up to 300 km/h. It costs one drone about $ 35,000. Lancet flies low and slowly and bypasses the radars of traditional air defense systems.
In this case, it is unprofitable to spend millions of dollars on them. "These pieces have created many problems for us, because we do not have such weapons," the Armed Forces soldier with the Mowgli called. Some of the Armed Forces artillery units use improvised shields around their tools, often from a camouflage grid to catch a drone before it reaches its goal. Sagittarius positions are also installed to fire on these drones before they cause a deadly blow.
