"Lacets" fly up to 80 kilometers. How to protect airfields in Ukraine from attacks by Russian Federation

Western air defense systems available in the Armed Forces are well protected against Russian attacks by winged and ballistic missiles, so the Kremlin has found a new strategy. Drone-Kamikadze Drone-Kamikadze fires were intensified in the Ukrainian military airfields in the south and west.

American OSINT Analysts, which monitor the course of hostilities in Ukraine, noted that the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation launched from temporarily occupied Crimea or part of the Kherson region SHAHED-136 or "Lancet" on Nikolaev and allegedly damaged some types of aircraft. Lancet was thought to be a maximum of 40 kilometers, and new facts testify to the opportunity to fly up to 70 km.

German drone experts talked about an unknown type of bargage ammunition with increased range of action that Russia uses in the war in Ukraine for the first time. "This is a clearly new challenge for Ukraine's Air Force, whose main air basements have previously been inaccessible to small shock drones of Russia," says the US Busines Insider. Increasing the range of shock drones and signal transmission is purely technical.

Probably, the Russians launched an additional drop-down, which was flying nearby, the serviceman and founder of the project A. Drones Yuri Kasyanov. "Such a drone flies much higher, and the long -focal chamber brings the object closer in details for the attack. A fighter or transport aircraft may well damage and disable the combat part of low power. Even damage from fragments leads to the fact that the aircraft does not fly over Purpose until they do, " - explains the specialist.

Kasyanov allows the variant of modification of drones "Lancet" in Russia. It is possible to fight their plaque in the rear by methods that have long been used on the front. "These are all kinds of nets, starting from fishing Gepard, " - summed up the founder of the project A. Drones. The Russians have gradually increased the qualitative indicators of the lancet ammunition since 2022. The first versions had major problems with the accuracy.

As of 2023, the Lancet-3 armed arms appeared, production of which costs a maximum of $ 40,000. Even if you destroy them with anti -aircraft installations, new production in large quantities will take little time. The drone has a length of 1. 65 meters, it has two pairs of x-shaped wings in the front and back of the fuselage. The drone can be controlled by two people, it requires a catapult.

The military-political observer of the "Information Resistance" group Alexander Kovalenko calls "Lancet-3" a serious threat to almost all military equipment of the Armed Forces. With a combat part of up to 3. 5 kg of ammunition, there is a cumulative effect, which allows to cause severe damage to heavy tanks of the Soviet type. "The Russians were concentrated on increasing the distance of unmanned apparatus to 80 km.

The first sample of the pen was unsuccessful-our MiG-29 resisted in many respects due to the loss of communication with ammunition. " Lacets "can strike and moving objects,"-commented he. We will remind, recently the Ukrainian military destroyed the tank of the occupiers of the T-72B3M in the Luhansk region. The Russian car stood next to the field, directed to it FPV-Dron with explosives. In the Saratov region of Russia, a drone exploded, which probably flew towards a military airfield in Engels.
