MOSCOW REGION, RUSSIA – JUNE 25, 2019: A ZALA Lancet-3 attack drone developed by Kalashnikov Concern on display at the Army 2019 International Military Technical Forum at Patriot Park. Marina Lystseva/TASS
Between April 13 and 23, Russian news sources released several videos documenting recent strikes with Lancet loitering munition against equipment of Kiev forces in the Russian special military operation zone.
The pinpoint strikes destroyed or damaged an American-made M777 towed 155 mm howitzers, two unidentified towed howitzers, most likely Soviet-made D30 122 mm, a Soviet-made 9K33 Osa short-range air defense system, a Soviet-made T-80 main battle tank and an unidentified wheeled armored personnel carrier, possibly a BTR-3.
The Lancet loitering munition was developed by the ZALA Aero Group, a subsidiary of Russia’s defense giant Kalashnikov Concern.
The company produces two versions of the loitering munition, the Izdeliye-52 with an endurance of 30 minutes and a one-kilogram warhead and the larger Izdeliye-51 that has an endurance of 40 minutes and is armed with a warhead weighting three kilograms.
The loitering munition flies towards the designated area with a GLONASS-aided inertial navigation system. After arriving in the area, the operator utilizes an onboard electro-optical system via a two-way data-link to detect, track and lock on the target. A laser-ranging system then controls the detonation of the warhead.
The small radar cross-section and minimal infrared signature of the electric-powered loitering munition makes it nearly impossible to intercept.
Since the start of the Russian special military operation in Ukraine, there have been at least 214 Lancet strikes against Kiev forces, The vast majority of the strikes were successful.

The real deal news of that war is now that: Prigozin announced that from today at 12.00 PM local hour WAGNER PMC will NEVER TAKE PRISONERS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! That was after he listen to a recorded ukronazi command to kill a wounded PMC fighter in Backmut. Now, that’s my taste ! I was after such message from the beginning……no, azovite, banderite, aiderite/mercerite garbage taken prisoner ! Execution on spot ! Only the regular ukroidiot army to benefit for that gratitude (hoping he will be cured from its brain emptiness soon). No, after a very quick calculations, there will be no less than around 50 nazi hitlertruppen denazified per day only in Backmut !!!!!!!
Why not sending them to goulags to make ammo ?
The Greens are dragging Germany down with their foreign and energy policies ( all kaps )
the grater our wictory will be
“The greens” = The pedos
First Russia needs something “stealth” that can monitor sky. Second imagine a drone type Lancet with a larger warhead with a longer range than any available artillery….then its game over.
Gerans with 50kg buratino thermobaric warhead , camera and a two-way datalink would do the job , and copies of easy-to-make german WW2 V1 missiles with 200km range ,glonass guiding (and 1 ton warhead ) would do the job too against bunkers ,damaged tanks/artillery ,etc .. but it looks like nobody cares in Russia
More than a year of this conflict and still no mass production of anything being set up … Putin looks more and more like the last Czar , who destroyed Russia by his incompetence and negligence , while being encircled by foreign agents ..
Impeach Binden now, send Blinken to jail for masterminding a criminal conspiracy to influence the US elections on 2020
Onslaught continues but totally ignored/censored in western media… if these drones were some overhyped US crap given to ukros, nato media and trolls on twitter would go berserk in ecstasy.
They will probable win that war…. On twitter !
Dombass NATO ssissie’s dreams keep getting wrecked. Bakhmut has fallen and there will be no counter offensive.
So…non brown black people make up around 9% of the global population. Numbers will go down to 3% by 2025. Deagle Report. Now you know the plan.
All I say is hypocritical of course.
Get black peoples out of your mind you fucking pink nazi bastard.
Why is Russia losing? Can you explain it to me?
Have we won yet? Are we strong? Not in Crimea yet? Why not ? Oh my god are we losing? Yet? or not yet? Do you know why ? or not why? or yet?
Those music bombs look painful and probably feel even worse.
But but tatjana in moscow Is now left with a half working Washingmachine because Chips removed for the smo So ordinary russians suffer For putin
I love waking up in the morning with fresh coffee and watching NATO shit being blown up.
very good, but the most clips proofs that the warhead should be at least doubled, because many hits show only damages, but only rarely full destruction. there are many reports of ukros pulling damaged heavy armament to poland and czech republic for repair. wit bigger warheads there will be nothing left to repair.
The fact that Lancet can hit moving targets is just, in the lack of a better word, awe inspiring.
