#horynych — Public Fediverse posts

E-300 #Horynych is a Ukrainian long-range, heavy-payload bomber drone engineered from a French-designed Skyranger ultralight.

You can buy a Skyranger ultralight for around $60k. #Ukraine is using them to target #Russia assets. It can deliver a heavy payload and can carry much more sophisticated avionics than a conventional drone making it capable of very low level attack and flying through GPS denied areas.

With luck, it can drop bombs and fly home but there is speculation they were used in oil refinery attacks on a one-way trip through anti-drone netting.

Ukraine is shy about these weapons probably because "forward" human help is required for accurate targeting. e.g. painting targets (like catalytic crackers) with lasers.

#russia stills believes the "special operation" narrative but #ukaine scientists and engineers will fight to the end because they have nowhere else to go.
