Unable to suppress the reb: how the Armed Forces use French UAV CHIMERA (photo)

The developer calls the drone of Chimera "an inexpensive version of the Caesar gun" because it drops 155 mm projectiles on Russian invaders. The Defense Forces of Ukraine use Chimera's unmanned bombard apparatus, created by a 57-year-old French entrepreneur Jerome Bulbler. A man told about his development in an interview with Le Parisien. It is reported that the severe chimera hexacopter can carry a 155-mm projectile, overcoming up to 50 kilometers at a height of 400 meters.

According to Zhukeler, it is the only air carrier of such a large caliber in the world. The developer calls his invention "an inexpensive version of the Caesar gun" - the production of one such drone costs 15,000 euros. Chimera's drone was first tested in Zaporozhye in April 2023. According to the creator, these UAVs are resistant to the action of radio electronic struggle (HRB), so they can penetrate the rear of the enemy.

"Chimera is invisible! The most difficult obstacle systems, especially those used by the Russians, will not be able to do anything," Zhukeler said. According to the developer, Chimera is very easy to use. Initially, two servicemen deliver it on the pickup closer to the war zone. Then one of them loads the projectile and the other ensures the safety of the operation. The operator can be thirty kilometers.

"As soon as the goal is determined, he releases explosives, getting into the" apple "during every shot: a tank, a bunker, a trench . . . ", - said the creator of the apparatus. Ukraine has already bought 250 UAVs Chimera, but Jerome Buller also wants to implement its development in France. The drone is 100 % made of French components, the main suppliers of which are well -known companies. However, so far, the developer's appeal to the French Defense Ministry and other agencies has not produced results.
