It is alleged that a Ukrainian UJ-22 drone of a new modification was used for one of the strikes on Tatarstan's facilities, which are 1,300 km away from the front line. For the second attack, a drone based on the Ukrainian A-22 "Flying Fox" ultra-light airplane Aeropract A-22 was used.
According to BILD, already this year Ukraine will be able to use drones with a range of up to 2,000 kilometers and more. By the end of the year, 10 manufacturers will supply the AFU with drones with a range of up to 2,500 kilometers. And Kyiv's Luch Design Bureau has developed the Sokol-3000 drone, which can fly up to 3,300 kilometers.
According to BILD calculations, the new Ukrainian weapon will be able to attack targets, for example, in the Murmansk region. About 80 military bases are located there. Among them is Olenya airfield, where strategic bombers that bombard Ukraine are based. These bases are more than 2,000 kilometers away from the front line.
