On November 18, Russian sources shared a video documenting an attack with KUB-BLA loitering munitions, commonly called a kamikaze drones, on the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU).
The video shows three strikes on gatherings of AFU troops on a road near the village of Pavlivka on Donetsk front. Several Ukrainian soldiers were apparently killed or wounded as a result of the pinpoint strikes, which were coordinated with the help of a surveillance drone and took place at night time.
The KUB-BLA was developed by the ZALA Aero Group to engage static targets, including gatherings of manpower and equipment.
The loitering munition has an operational range of up to 60 kilometers, an endurance of 30 minutes and a top speed of 130 kilometers per hour.
The KUB-BLA is armed with a HE-Frag [high explosive fragmentation] warhead that weights three kilograms. The loitering munition’s warhead explodes over the target with the help of a proximity fuze, which maximizes the damage.
The Russian military has been using the KUB-BLA and other types of loitering munitions, like the ZALA Aero Group’s Lancet and the Geranium-1 and 2 which are thought to be copies of Iran’s Shahed-131 and 136, since the beginning of its special operation in Ukraine with much success. These systems have already inflicted heavy human and material losses on the AFU.
So far, Ukraine’s air defense systems and electronic warfare means have been largely ineffective against Russian loitering munitions.
These Kaskad guys are pretty bad at accuracy. Every video I have seen from this unit is not very productive. They always inflict minimal damage on personnel or equipment when they could have better success. They very inaccurate
Clear, here are too small warhead. These drones, all of they, are much too small.
Really? Watch this video https://t.me/i20028843/28853 The driver is dead
Better than USA who only attacks churches, weddings, kindergardens and funderals.
Recalcitrant pro-West Ukrainians are savagely punished. Ha ha ha ha ha!
No matter how much damage inflicted Ukraine is winning battels. On media.
A couple of more months like this and the CAUKUS and EU media will get a gut punch from the Zelensky curse as well.
No one likes being deceived. And the more unstable the consequences, the angrier people will be getting.
Why they did not shot at Kherson while Zelensky scum was there!?
Death to all nazis!
All targets were missed. Not surprising for Russian military.
I’m pretty sure those were hits.
Last night i didnt miss the poo whole of your wife.

DONT FORGET SAY THANKS TO ME..
Thank you very much. Now go and take a running jump to yourself.
In case you don’t know what a ‘running jump to yourself’ is, it means get stuffed.
Lol you moron. How many 3 World refugees can afford fly Tickets? And how many countries are between Serbia and Germany who have visa Regime and Strong border Control? We know that you Hasbara and Soros Hurenkinder wann to flood Europe and Mainly Germany with african and mideast refugees, to weaken and damage bot, but we will See who will win.
Russian grinding Factory is now making extra shifts in ordert to keep grinding fresh Ukrainian meat
Indeed they may kill few Ukrainians with this tactic. But then what? Its like no land taking is in progress… If Russia continues like this it will be poop…
lol you moron. with russian drones, missiles and artillery ukros are loosing daily 500 dead and 1000-1500 wounded. what do you think how long this will be bearable for ukros? its simple math and logic. with this ongoing, latest end of next year nearly nothing will be left of the ukro army
And why does not Russian hackers work overtime to add videos on MSM of Ukrainians killing Russian POW?
Thats a sad Thermal. It has the resolution of a blind retarded kids broken Atari….It also has no ability to adjust to the temps deviation overload from the flash of explosives . Probably left over fro the Ho chi men trail supply chain? The bad part is that the explosions were actually about the size of a fire cracker, albeit a larger one not that deadly but look huge on that ancient thermal. Now if Russia can get its shit together the Kub and Lancet simply need a larger war head and they need a lot more of them. They are killing it and they come with the videos to show for it. Those freeze frames of the”oh were fucked” right before impact would help them win the you tube war. Just dont let the guy fly that attacked the morgue truck… killing Ukrainian twice is not a good use of a limited resource.
It seems to me after watching the video to be a quite ineffective way to eliminate troops, as they are just continuing to crawl away after explosions. Wouldn’t a good old 120 mm mortar attack be much more deadly to the racist-fascists scum bags of Ukraine?
