influence on war? – Delivery to Ukraine: Kamikaze drones approaching

Date:

The US is supplying Ukraine with mini-guided missiles, one of which can even destroy tanks. “If they are used in swarms, they can influence the war,” said military expert Markus Reisner.

Will this weapon become a terror for the Russian army? The US has begun equipping the Ukrainian armed forces with portable Switchblade drones. They allow the individual soldier to deliver a devastating blow against vehicles, and in the larger version even tanks.

“The switchblade unfolds its wings after firing and can then circle in the air over the target space. The user sees the target on a screen, marks it and the drone shoots at it like a kamikaze – hence the name,” explains Markus Reisner, Colonel in the General Staff of the Armed Forces and an expert in this type of weapon.

Cheap and hard to fight
The advantage of the fairly cheap mini-drones (price only $300 each) is that they are practically undetectable by enemy radar and therefore difficult to combat. The US has already supplied 100 pieces of the Switchblade version 300 (range ten kilometers, flight time 15 minutes, warhead with the effect of a 40 mm grenade launcher cartridge).

200 of version 600 (see video above) are said to have been transported to Ukraine. This drone has a range of 40 kilometers, a flight time of up to 40 minutes and an armor-piercing shape-charge warhead.

How decisive can these weapons be?
Could these weapons have a decisive influence on the course of the war in Ukraine? “If there are a large number of them, if the drones appear as swarms in the sky, it can have a big effect,” Reisner said. The training of Ukrainian soldiers is also not too complicated and is already being carried out in neighboring countries.
