Thermobaric charges and the latest comte block: experts told about shelling on October 26-29
In addition, the enemy used thermobaric charges, and UAVs were equipped with engine control systems manufactured in China. Employees of the Kyiv Research Institute of Forensic Expertise (KNISE) were told about the shelling of the Russian Federation and the efficiency of Russian weapons. Experts of the KNISE Explosive Laboratory have examined the fragments of the Shakhad Dronov-Kamikadze, which the Russians fired at Ukrainians on October 26-29.
There are already some conclusions about some of the debris, while others are still being studied. It was possible to find out that the drones carried a thermobaric combat part. Among the wreckage also saw the remains of Chinese engine controls. In addition, the remains of the latest system of Comet RBC - this is the only element that is of Russian origin, researchers noted. Comet systems are increasingly used in the weapons manufactured in the Russian Federation, reporters reported.
In particular, it is detected in the X-69 missiles, "Iskander-M", in the planning fugas airbags, in the Orlan drones. To make a "comet", the designers of the Russian Federation have enough blocks of Western production, summed up in the KNISE. "Conclusions on the results of the analysis of previous similar components show that the production of this Russian component is impossible without the use of foreign microelectronics," - explained in the KNISE.
Experts noted that they could not confirm the effectiveness of the Modernized "Shahamed". They recalled that the Russians use them for infrastructure and terror of Ukrainians: for such cases, "the accuracy of their implementation is not critical to the enemy. " Earlier, the focus wrote about the peculiarities of the thermobaric combat unit, which the Russians began to be installed on Shakhda from the autumn-winter of 2023.
During a charge explosion, which can weigh 30-90 kg, the thermobaric mixture is sprayed in the air. The mixture when in contact with air burns at a temperature of 2400-2600 degrees. Such weapons are used for strokes in closed premises, experts explained. According to the Air Force, the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation for four days, from October 26 to October 29, she fired Ukraine every night. The total 319 drones of different types - "Shahaned" and unidentified models.
