A Sky News security source notes that the new Shahed-107 drone belongs to the Shahed-101 family of unmanned aerial vehicles with a V-shaped “tail”.
The UAV, which is about 2.5 meters long and has a wingspan of 3 meters, can be launched from a vehicle. It can cover distances of up to 1500 km.
It is assumed that the kamikaze drone will be equipped with a transmitter for transmitting video. Such reconnaissance capabilities mean the drone could be used to identify targets on Ukraine’s front lines to engage other UAVs or weapons systems.
The interlocutor also added that Russia will soon receive high-precision surface-to-surface missile systems from Iran. This includes missiles with a range of more than 300 km.
Previously, the Air Force did not confirm the destruction of the Shahed-238 with a jet engine.
I can’t confirm. We don’t find him. Whoever found it, let him confirm, show and tell. We discussed this topic, that Iran showed 238 “martyrs”, black. After this demonstration, our UAVs began to be repainted black and the occupiers,” said Air Force Speaker Yuri Ignat.
Assessing the risks from the new “martyr”, Ignat called the new UAV a “minicryl rocket.” As he explained, the warhead of the drone will not be large due to the excessive fuel consumption of the jet engine.
