DIU destroyed a number of Russian military targets with Beaver drones

A-50 in Taganrog, SU-57, and Putin's pride — the Voronezh radar. All of them have one thing in common: the last thing they saw before going out of order was beavers.

The GUR said that UJ-26 "Beaver" kamikaze drones were used to strike targets in Russia. Which in the hands of Ukrainian intelligence fighters have been successfully "nightmaring" the enemy on his own territory for over a year.

The Ukrainian drone "Beaver" is an attack unmanned aerial vehicle designed to perform various military tasks, in particular, to strike important targets behind the enemy's rear. It is designed to conduct reconnaissance operations, adjust artillery fire, and launch strikes against ground targets.

"Beaver" is actively used in military operations in Ukraine, in particular in the context of the fight against Russian aggression. This drone is part of a new generation of Ukrainian drones, which significantly increases the capabilities of the Armed Forces in war.
