Not paint, but completely different material: the military revealed the riddle of black "shahas" (photo)

In Russia, Iranian drones were strongly reworked, making them light, strong and black, while increasing the weight of the explosives, says serviceman Sergei Flash. Black chamber-type drone, which has recently been attacked by the Russian army recently, is probably created from hydrocibuses. About it on the page on Facebook told the Ukrainian military communicator and expert on electronic wrestling Sergey Beskrestnov ("Flash"), who studied the fragments of whipped aircraft.

According to him, a completely different type of materials was used in the production of this UAV than in Shahd drones of Iranian production. Moreover, the black color of the product did not give paint, as it was thought before, but the special material from which it was made. The top and bottom of the debris was a black layer of 1 mm thick, and inside was a light filler 4 mm thick. It was similar to a very dense expanded polystyrene.

And the black layers, according to Sergei Flash, resembled something similar to fiberglass impregnated with epoxy. All this makes the design of the drone at the same time light and durable. "It was surprised that this material contains some metal content in some form. My metal detector reacts slightly. Probably, black material is carbohydrate," the expert wrote.

Answering the question why the Russians needed to upgrade drones, Sergei Beskrestnov stopped at the idea that this was needed to increase the mass of explosives. Therefore, they facilitated the basic material without the idea to make Shahd invisible "for the air defense forces, as expected earlier. Also, the military communicator believes that the Russians did not create material for" black shahd "on their own, but purchased ready.

Yes, on the site, on the site, on the site The reference to the expert, you can buy light sandwich-carbon fiber with a transparent epoxy matrix and core. They can be easily mill 255. 23 € (10. 6 thousand UAH, ed. ) , Ed. ), Colored in black. According to their version, this was done because such masking can complicate their detection against the background of the night sky with a spotlight, which is the main means of detection for mobile air defense groups.
