Russian Ministry of Defense has published footage that shows airborne troops blasting Ukrainian tanks with loitering munition.

From a technical standpoint, this type of weaponry fills in the niche between cruise missiles and military UAVs, being smarter than the first and cheaper than the latter. The drones have built-in warheads and thus don't survive the attack.

12:08 16.09.2023 (Updated: 16:36 16.09.2023) Russia is intensively using various modifications of drones in the special military operation zone in Ukraine in order to reduce unnecessary risks for troops and carry out surgical strikes on the enemy. Russia's well-known kamikaze UAV "Lancet" can easily disable enemy armored vehicles despite its compact size.
Russian Ministry of Defense has published footage that shows airborne troops blasting Ukrainian tanks with loitering munition. The enemy vehicles were spotted with reconnaissance
drones and then "Lancet" kamikaze UAVs were used to take it out.
