"Can their ribbeds": the expert pointed to the differences of Iranian drones of Shahd and analogues of the Russian Federation "Italmas"
Oleksandr Musienko, the head of the Military Legal Research Center, told this in an interview with Focus. According to Musienko, the Russian drones "Italmas" are very similar to Iranian shock drones Shahd 136 \ 131. At the same time, their dimensions are smaller, but the principle of operation is the same as that of Iranian analogues. The main difference is the engine that has cheaper in Russian UAVs, which leads to the low cost of drones.
"That is, a lot is copied, the only thing is the difference between the engine - it is simpler and cheaper than that of Shahd, so the cost of such drone can be even cheaper. And if it is cheaper, it enables the enemy to" ripen "in a lot of so much," - - - - - Musienko noted. The expert stressed that Russian shock UAVs do not use new technologies, and they cannot change high frequency. Drones can develop speeds up to 170 km / h.
At the same time, the Ukrainian air defense is already knocking down these drones. "I would highlight what it is cheap. In order for us to produce them in large numbers, to finance them so that we can produce and run them through Russia, "Musienko said. When asked about who still produces new strikes, Alexander Musienko replied that it was a "national team".
Thus, under the terms of the contract, which was signed last year between Iran and Russia that drones should gather in the future in Russia, there were three stages. The first stage: Russia will produce the so -called large -scale assembly. This is when ShahED is imported in disassembled form, it is collected, tuned and then launched. "They were also disassembled for more to be imported, as you can download more in disassembled form," Musienko explained.
The second stage: Russia was to move to the fact that it would no longer be a large harvest, and some elements would produce directly in Russia - those produced in Iran. The third stage: Russia independently produces drones under the technical supervision of Iran. "Now Russia has only come to the second stage. And what details are used? A minimum of Russian details now.
These are either the details that were made in Iran, they are also not a lot, or it is a salt -waters - everything that is collected around the world. There is and there and there Chinese and individual Western components sold through China and third countries. Then it is collected, tuned and used, "Musienko summarized. We will remind, on September 21 Russian media reported that in Izhevsk they created a new shock drone called "Italmas".
