Israel armed drones with invisible bombs, the military opened the details - Reuters

After dropping new bombs, it is almost impossible to notice because they do not create noise and smoke, accelerating to the speed of sound, says the source from the army of Israel. Israeli battle drones can dump powerful and silent bombs, which are very difficult to evade. About it writes the Reuters news agency, referring to a high -ranking Israeli officer.

According to them, the drones of the Israeli army are equipped with freely fallen unmanaged (gravitational) bombs that do not give noise and leave a smoke trace, so it is difficult to notice and evade them. The point is that such bombs have neither power plants that make loud sounds nor the frying burners that burn fuel. According to the source, gravitational bombs fall very quickly and can accelerate to the speed of sound. "No one will hear it, no one will see him approaching," the source said.

As the military added, the drones themselves should fly at a very high altitude so that the enemy could not hear the noise that is heard by propeler engines. When Israel was fighting in the Hague in 2008-2009, the drones had to fly below the clouds, otherwise the cameras could not notice the targets. As a result, Israeli aircraft was heard from the ground and I was losing an element of surprise.

However, the officer said that the Heron TP drones were manufactured by ISrael Aerospace Industries Ltd, as well as Hermes from Elbit Systems Ltd. Heron TP the size of a passenger plane is the most difficult UAV in the Israeli Army Park and can bear ammunition with a total weight of ton. Sources claim that Israeli producers keep their wrestling capabilities of their drones because of the secrecy of the country's Ministry of Defense.

According to one of the military, all deals on the sale of drones-bombers are carried out directly between the governments, so there is no need to disclose the characteristics in public. Last July, the Israeli Army first recognized the use of shock drones after 30 years of silence. The country's authorities also made a ban on illumination of drones for local media. In November, Israeli General described drones using military and artillery troops.
