Mysterious Ukrainian drones destroy Russian air defence, new weapon was called "Ukrainian Lancets"
The outskirts of the Russian city of Orenburg are rapidly going under the water. Residents are furious and threaten rallies already in the capital of the region, writes the Mozhem Obyasnit Telegram channel.
According to the governor of the region Denis Pasler, the water level in the Ural River is approaching a record high of 11 m. The head of the region urged residents of flooded areas to evacuate. Hundreds of houses in the vicinity of Orenburg and several city districts with a population of half a million have already gone underwater.
The Mozhem Obyasnit Telegram channel contacted the victims.

Ukraine has long-range drones destroying Russian mobile air defence systems. Forbes reported.
Ä°t is noted that the new weapons were called "Ukrainian Lancets", since they are similar to Russian UAVs. The increased range of the drones allows for many new targets to be hit, and the Ukrainians take advantage by attacking expensive equipment before the Russians can move it to a safe place.
The new drone was first mentioned in a Telegram post on the official channel of the Khortytsia operational-strategic group fighting in Ukraine’s Eastern front.
"As a result of aerial reconnaissance in the area of the settlement of Zorya, the enemy's 2S6 Tunguska air defence system was detected. A RAM X loitering munition was launched at the detected target. As a result of fire damage, the detected target was critically damaged," the article reads.
Several more strikes from the same type of munitions appear in a new compilation video from the Ukrainian Army showing the destruction of various air defence systems: Two Buk launcher vehicles, a Buk radar vehicle, two Tor systems, a Strela-10, and a different Tunguska the like. These expensive assets will be difficult or impossible to replace in wartime.
Another video from April 10th shows a successful strike on a Russian mobile Borisoglebsk-2 electronic warfare system which clearly failed to either jam the attack drone or the scout drone filming the strike.
There are some interesting points here, the authors of the article note. One is that the Tunguska, a tracked air defence system with twin 30mm cannon, four surface-to-air missiles and its own integrated radar which is supposed to shoot down drones, was tracked and destroyed by Ukrainian drones.
Another point is the name of the drone. RAM X implies an upgraded version of the RAM II loitering munition made by Ukrainian company CDET. The company produces the extremely successful Leleka-100 reconnaissance drone, which has a wingspan of 3 meters and endurance of more than two hours, making it a valuable asset.
In addition, the video of the defeats of Russian weapons practically does not show the drone itself, which attacks it. Unlike the Lancet, which is easily identifiable in attack videos from its distinctive white silhouette with double-X wings , the RAM X is much harder to spot.
