Russian Lancet loitering munition strikes targeted two different Ukrainian radar systems identified as P-18 and 35D6M units.
The Lancet-3 weighs approximately 30 pounds and can travel at around 70 mph. The operator drives it using a camera mounted in the nose of the weapon, and then it performs a 190mph dive bomb onto its target. The weaponized drone carries approximately 10 pounds of explosive payload, and it has an estimated range of 25 miles.
While the kamikaze drone has certainly racked up the kills as evidenced in these videos, other videos and Ukrainian aftermath footage shows the Lancet is prone to missing its target as well as sometimes inflicting only superficial damage as well.
