According to him, the concept of this UAV is very simple — it is a cheap and primitive jet drone.

“Flash” also emphasized that the analog video is at a frequency of 3.3 GHz, and the flight range reaches up to a hundred kilometers.

Despite this, attacks have currently been recorded at a distance of 30–40 km from the front line.

As for cruising speed, it is about 260 km/h, with accelerations up to 300 km/h.

Serhiy Beskrestnov clarified: the warhead weighs approximately 4–5 kg.

I ask everyone to pay attention to the video format and record such cases. We are also looking for a whole trophy to understand the operation of guidance and control systems. The enemy is trying to use cheap jet UAVs as a countermeasure against anti-aircraft drones and MVG, — emphasizes "Flash".
