The expert explained why the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation will not be able to fully switch to the Shakhi 238 jet (video)

According to him, only the engine for Shahaneda's jet costs at least $ 40,000. For comparison, the engine on the usual Iranian UAV type "geranium 2" costs $ 15 thousand. "Accordingly, it is necessary to strengthen the structure, a little different equipment. Well, this drone will be at least 2. 5 times more expensive. Although even the engine is at least two prices," he said.

Romanenko believes that the emergence of Shahaneda's jet shows that "ordinary" drones of mobile Ukrainian groups knock down quite effectively. "They want to" turn off "this component of our air defense and therefore use jet drones. But they are either not aware or forget that the same mobile groups have MAZRCs," the gap of the air said. He added that Ukraine has received western fighters with Sidewinder missiles, Mica, which have infrared guidance, so they will be able to work on Shahaned's jet.

"It is the Russians as an additional line to complicate the work of the air defense system. But it is not that they will completely switch to the jet. They are too expensive," the expert says. Romanenko also denied information that the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation first used reactive UAVs only now: "Shahhad 238" for the first time in January last year. That is, they could fight them. They are convenient for destruction from any MAZRC.

The reactive engine gives a powerful source of thermal radiation, and all rockets with infrared rockets. We have every mobile group. " Earlier, the observer Vadim Kushnikov mentioned Iris-T complexes, NASAMS, as well as anti-air artillery with programmable ammunition, capable of knocking down jet. We will remind, on the night of July 31 Kiev, along with the usual shock drones attacked the jet "Shahda". The drones went to Kiev from different sides, after which the rocket attack followed.
