Photos of the new Ukrainian “bird” have appeared online. An air vehicle is like a munition with wings. Detailed technical specifications have not yet been disclosed. User Maxim Glushak reported this on his Facebook page on January 17.
Very powerful jet-powered birds successfully tested. Everything to bring victory closer! More details in due course,” he wrote.
As the Militarny portal noted, in the photos it published you can see a UAV designed according to the “Duck” aerodynamic design, with a front horizontal tail. And in the aft part there is a power plant of an unknown type, which is a jet engine.
It is also noted that the kamikaze drone has a straight wing with Hjorner-type end wings that provide additional lift. Volunteers from the Battalion Volunteer charity foundation took part in testing the new drone.
The new UAV requires a special take-off trolley, which drops off during climb and remains on the runway.
Let us remind you that the Ukrainian media revealed details of the new generation of surface drone “Sea Baby”. The UAV is capable of carrying up to 850 kg of explosives, and not 108 kg as before. Sea Baby was also equipped with flamethrower systems, allowing it to engage in naval combat with the enemy.
