Iranian Dron-Kamikadze Shahd-136 attacked the White Church. What and how can Ukraine answer

It is the presence of missiles capable of striking our deep rear that was one of the significant advantages of the Russian Federation in the war with us. And now it turns out that primitive drones with internal combustion engines can do practically the same work as these rocket launchers. And (it turns out!) No one, Ukraine, prevented us from creating the same drones in thousands of quantities and beat for hundreds and thousands of kilometers in the Russian rear.

Imagine how many echelons with armored vehicles, how many camps and barracks with personnel could we destroy in distant approaches, so that they do not come here? How many casualties among our army and civilians could we avoid if the maximum of Russian troops were eliminated on the first day of the war? And then they were no different from the goal on which today they hit the White Church Droam-Kamikadze Shahd-136.

Why did Iran, the country under rigid external sanctions and internal religious dictatorship, was able to create such weapons, and we, one of the most important countries of the world, was unable to open? I met with the previous president twice, spoke specific and abstract things about the need to develop drones in the army. I met with developers and suggested to create a percussion drone to impress military goals in Crimea.

I wanted to do it defiantly, taking political responsibility for myself - to show that this formidable weapon, capable of radically reducing our imbalance with the aggressor, knocking down its pride. Of course, they looked at me like a madman. No, it was difficult for domestic developers. It just doesn't need anyone, and for the developers it was a risk of great trouble from power. Actually, and now in Ukraine the development of shock UAVs is forbidden by private companies.

In the country that stands on the verge of existence, and the state defense of which is 95% of impotence and corruption, ordinary citizens are forbidden to develop weapons. Entire departments in special services and law enforcement agencies receive salaries from our funds - because they are watching that none of the average Ukrainians can develop weapons to protect the country. Of course, weapons are still being developed-but semi-legal and only those who have a gurry-SCO group.

And the strange atmosphere prevails over all this: there is not enough cooperation, but there are many jealousy. There was a little openness to their brothers, a lot of commercial and narrow corporate interest. I spend my almost unaffected free time to develop and to share the experience with others as much as possible. Unfortunately, not everyone, and the closer to the official statuses, do, the less he cooperates with others. Meanwhile, our Ukrainian drones are better, more modern than Iranian.
