Russia’s Lancet drone is an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and a loitering munition, another term for a sophisticated kamikaze drone. It has been proven to be a serious threat to high-value equipment and an ideal weapon on the battlefield.
The Russian Defense Ministry has released video footage showing troops from Russia’s Battlegroup Zapad using Lancet drones to destroy Ukrainian military equipment and disrupt troop rotations.
The Lancet drone is particularly effective against high-value targets, such as tanks and artillery.
Kamikaze drones have become a notable innovation in modern warfare, combining drone technology with suicide attack tactics. Their use offers advantages, including high-speed strikes and a reduced risk to personnel.
