Herbera foam: What is known about the new Russian drone that has attacked Ukraine twice (video) twice

New Russian development can be used for radio electronic intelligence, be a drone-Kamikadze or a false purpose for air defense. Analysts believe that the drone shot down last week in the Kyiv region probably performed a reconnaissance function. The Russian soldiers posted a video with a drone that was not identified on the night of July 24 on July 24. This is Gerber drone. It has foam fuselage and is characterized by a fairly low level of production.

The Defense Express analyzed the published personnel. Original footage distributed the Units of the Stavinsky Falcons, which works closely with "Alabuga", where "Shahi" is produced. The chevron of the unit depicts the Iranian drone together with the Soviet flag, which emphasizes the importance of Iranian technologies for the Russian manufacturer. Herbera's drone can perform three different functions: be a means of electronic reconnaissance, drone-Kamikadze or false target.

The whipped sample was not a shock version, analysts say. The impact version of this drone deserves special attention. TV channel with a mediocre camera is used to bring to the target. This requires manual operator control, like FPV-oules. The accuracy of the impact depends on the skill of the operator, which is visible in the video, where he did not hit the target. The publication of this video indicates a limited number of such drones in Russia.

Interestingly, a camera is present on the gerber drone, while ShahED uses the laid coordinates for the attack. This may indicate a shorter gerbera flight with a combat part, limited by the radius of direct radio. Such a range can be several tens or up to hundreds of kilometers using a repeater. The first whipped drone was equipped with a 4G modem, which allows you to have a high-speed communication channel in certain areas to transmit video.

The issue of "Herbera" remains open, but it is likely to reach 300 km without the combat part. This allows us to use "Herbere" for intelligence, in particular for fixing the operation of radar systems and transmitting information online through the Ukrainian mobile network. It is also possible to use drone as a false purpose because of its relatively low cost. Recall that on July 24, the air defense forces were knocked down by an enemy drone that could not be identified.
