In the battlefield of Russia and Ukraine, in addition to Ukraine's Himas, it is the eternal pain in the hearts of the Russian army, Russia also has a small internet celebrity killer weapon that severely hurts the Ukraine army. This is the "Geranium-2" suicide drone.
Geranium-2 suicide drone
"Gerium-2" suicide drone is actually the Shahed 136 introduced from Iran . It is the world's first swarm drone to be put into actual combat. Its fuselage length: 3.5 meters, wingspan: 2.5 meters, range of movement: 1800-2500 kilometers, weight: 200 kilograms, warhead weight is 50 kilograms, and the construction cost is about RMB 50,000 per unit. It mainly attacks high-value targets such as vehicles and air defense system. It has a very good impact on low-protection targets such as Haymas and M777, which can be said to be cheap and good. "Geranium-2" uses a cheap motorcycle engine , which sounds similar to a motorcycle when flying, so it has a nickname of "little motorcycle" on the battlefield of Russia and Ukraine.
"Small Motorcycle" destroyed Ukrainian military camp
According to public information: Since landing on the Russian-Ukrainian battlefield, the "Small Motorcycle" has achieved great results and has successively destroyed several Ukrainian 2S3 152mm self-propelled howitzers. The 55th Artillery Brigade of Ukraine was also hit by a "little motorcycle" in the barracks of Zaporoze .
Ukrainian howitzer destroyed by "small motorcycles"
So far, Ukrainian army has almost no choice but to be helpless against "small motorcycles". If you use large air defense missile systems such as S-300 and " Beech ", it will be difficult to lock up because the target of "small motorcycle" is too small; if you use portable individual air defense missiles such as stinger and needle, it will be difficult to ensure the effect. The only one that can completely intercept small motorcycles is the NASAMS air defense missile system supported by the United States. However, a NASAMS cost as much as US$2 million, and it is simply "killing 800 people and hurting 80,000 yuan." In desperation, Ukraine even dispatched fighter planes to intercept the "small motorcycles". According to the report of Global Network , a Ukrainian MiG29 fighter jet crashed during a battle with a Russian drone on October 13. According to analysis, the reason for the crash of the fighter may be that the debris of the drone was sucked into the air inlet of the fighter engine after the explosion.
