Ukraine has developed a new long-range drone with a flight range of over 3,000 kilometers. Thus, a drone can hit a target even in russian siberia. The Economist writes about it, UNN reports.
Details
The publication noted that Ukraine has invested hundreds of millions of dollars in the development of drones capable of hitting targets at a considerable distance. Currently, half a dozen companies produce them.
The best of the new models has a range of 3,000 km and can reach Siberia
Addendum
The journalists noted that this is a forced step for Ukraine, as international partners are reluctant to provide the Defense Forces with long-range weapons.
Finally, Ukraine's recent attacks with long-range drones on the russian oil industry have strained relations with the United States. Washington is likely concerned about the possibility of higher oil prices in the event of further attacks on russia's energy infrastructure.
However, according to the Economist , Ukraine has so far ignored US calls to "call off the strikes" on russia's oil industry. Over the past week, there has been a "retreat" from attacks on oil refineries, but this is likely to be temporary
Speaking to journalists, one of the drone manufacturers said that some American representatives unofficially support attacks on the russian oil industry.His interlocutors "winked" while they made the warning.
They privately tell us to keep going
Recall
Minister of Digital Transformation Mykhailo Fedorov said that Ukraine has increased production of drones capable of hitting targets more than 1,000 kilometers away tenfold.
