“Shahed” type kamikaze drones, equipped with an online control system, pose an increased threat to a number of regions of Ukraine. They are capable of striking not only stationary but also moving targets within a designated area.

This was announced by the Advisor to the President of Ukraine on the Development of Technological Areas of Defense, Serhiy Beskrestnov (“Flash”).

According to him, currently such drones have a limited online control range, which is due to the specifics of the technology used. At the same time, within the range of their operation, they pose a serious threat.
