RF tries to hide the origin of drones, signing them "M214 Gerani-2", but experts identified devices as shared 136. As Pavel Lakichuk assumes, with the help of Iranian drones, the Russians hope to deprive the Armed Forces of the most effective weapons, such as reactive systems of hars . Talking to the military, the expert came to the conclusion that the quality of Shahd 136 is "not super" because they have weaknesses that allow them to be knocked down with the means of radio electronic struggle.
Yuri Ignat added that Shahd 136 can be knocked down with the help of large-caliber weapons, portable Styinger anti-aircraft missile systems, anti-aircraft guns and installations such as German Gepard or even Soviet "piles". "We already have a fairly successful experience of combating these Shahd 136. We coped with winged missiles, coped with anti -aircraft missiles, will handle the drone," Lakichuk stressed.
According to Yuri Ignat, Dron-Kamikadze is cheaper than the winged missiles, but less destructive, as they can carry much less explosive. They can be used to destroy ammunition, fuel and lubricants or aircraft, and at the same time Iranian UAVs are significantly inferior to American accurate. The use of drones may indicate that Russia has exhausted the stock of rockets, and is now trying to get the goals in Ukraine at least.
"It is actually like an artillery projectile, about such a destructive force. It is a very serious thing, they need to be knocked down. They can be harmful, but not as much as the missiles can do," Yuri Ignat commented. He added that the Russian military is training, studying the possibilities of UAVs and methods of struggle of the Office to determine the speed and height at which the drones are the hardest to get.
Iran does not reveal the accurate characteristics of Shahd 136, but the military has already determined that its wingspan - about 2. 5 m, speed - 120 km/h, the weight of the warhead - 40 kg. Iranians claim that UAVs can fly up to 2000 km, but Yuri Ignat believes that the actual distance is at least twice less. The Armed Forces was shot for the first time by Iranian Dron-Kamikadze Shahd 136 on September 20 in the sky over the Nikolaev area. Analysts recognized it by specific stabilizers on the wings.
