Ukraine is increasingly utilizing kamikaze drones, specifically the domestically produced UJ-22 Airborne and AQ-400 Scythe, in its ongoing conflict with Russia. These drones, which include capabilities such as a 100km range and a 3kg warhead, are being used to target Russian ground targets, aerial drones, and helicopters. Ukrainian UAV strike units have been actively engaging Russian hardware, marking a significant shift in the dynamics of drone warfare in the region. This development represents Ukraine's strategic response to counter Russia's resource superiority. The drones are an analogue to Russia's "Lancet" loitering munition, and recent reports highlight a significant "harvest" of Russian hardware over the past week.

UAV strike units continue to attack Russian hardware. The “harvest” of the week — on the chart. Drones and technology on the battlefield are our asymmetric response to the enemy's resources superiority. More unmanned tech are in progress. https://t.co/OIKJqlTPNi
Ukraine has built and is already fielding its own analogue of Russia's "Lancet" loitering munition - the drone has a 100km range, 3kg warhead, and can hunt Russian ground targets, aerial drones and even helicopters. https://t.co/c9zsxdmsGl
