For this purpose, media journalists analyzed the films of drones, images of prototypes and fragments of UAV on Earth, and studied interviews with experts and officials. After that, the newspaper managed to accurately name two of the three attacking drones. The third drone remained unidentified. NYT writes that this unmanned lethal apparatus all the technical characteristics allowed to strike deep into the territory of Russia. These drones have a flight range of 1000 kilometers.

The drone is built according to the aerodynamic scheme of the type "duck", which allows the technique to quickly change the height of flight to avoid air defense. Beaver is also remembered by the horizontal operation installed in front of the main wing. One such Dron Kamikadze costs an average of $ 110,000. The publication also tells the story of the creation of the beaver drone.

At the end of December, the influential person Igor Lachenko was unexpectedly called by representatives of the military intelligence service of Ukraine and asked him to help financing the production of "drone, which can fly very far". Lachenkov and his million Subscribers in Telegram were able to raise 20 million hryvnias five months later - and only a week after the first attack of drones on the Kremlin on May 3, Lachenkov thanked his followers for achieving their goal of fundraising.

He attached three photos of himself next to a previously unprecedented drone, which he called "Beaver". There is more public information about UJ-22 Airborne than the previous drone. The drone can fly for six hours at a range of 500 miles, which allows it to overcome the distance from the border regions of Ukraine to Moscow. In addition, NYT analyzed existing photos from the landing of drones in the Russian Federation and concluded that at least three copies of UJ-22 had fallen or knocked down.
