Drone fleet expands with a heavy bomber

The Ministry of Defence of Ukraine has codified and adopted the “Bilyi Vovk” (“White Wolf”) strike unmanned aerial system in the Armed Forces of Ukraine. This was reported by the MoD’s Main Directorate for Support of the Life Cycle of Weapons and Military Equipment.

The drone can carry a large warhead capable of disabling enemy heavy vehicles and equipment, fortified structures, and other well-defended targets. 

The system can be deployed in a matter of minutes. The system includes, among other components, a UAV equipped with a digital combined camera, a control and monitoring station, a set of power batteries, and other equipment.

A reminder to defense equipment manufacturers: helpful information on the procedure for codifying new models of weapons and military equipment is available here.
