1/ Ukraine has copied Russia's Lancet loitering munition – but, Russian warbloggers say with dismay, the new Ukrainian Bulava munition is a significant improvement on the Russian original.

2/ The 'Yasinovataya, Donbass on the line of fire' Telegram channel summarises the Bulava's capabilities:

3/ "The Ukrainian analogue of the Lancet — the Bulava kamikaze drone:
🔺 Warhead: 3.6 kg
🔺 Range: up to 60 km
🔺 Flight time: about 1 hour
🔺 Maximum altitude: about 2 km
🔺 Speed: up to 100 km/h

🔺 Targets: Buk-M3 air defense, Tor SAM, Pole-21 electronic warfare, heavy equipment
🔺 Resistance to electronic warfare and communications: higher than that of the Lancet
🔺 Works in conjunction with the Aist 100 M2 reconnaissance drone for precise target search"

5/ 'Reporter Filatov' writes:

"We have been very happy for a long time about how successfully the Lancets are working. Almost a weapon of victory...

But have you thought about what to do when the Ukrainian analogue appears?"

6/ "I will not put up a video yet, but they are flying very actively.

And we are not very good at countering them. Or rather, not at all.

7/ "And judging by how Ukraine chooses targets, they are again outplaying us in control.

Their analogues are flying at targets that we would not approve." /end
