Although the Russian-Ukrainian conflict is not a typical modern war, drones are still becoming the main combat force of Russia and Ukraine, but because the two countries are not UAV countries, neither the number nor the performance is enough to completely crush each other. However, there has been an abnormal situation on the battlefield recently, and the Russian army's "Lancet" patrol missile seems to have ushered in an overall upgrade, not only the output has skyrocketed, but also the degree of intelligence is getting higher and higher. According to the Kalashnikov military-industrial group, the Lancet can already produce 200,000 aircraft a year, knowing that the Russian army was only equipped with about 200 aircraft in the early days of the war, so at the beginning the "Lancet" participated in the war very little.
Moreover, the performance of the "Lancet" in the early days of the conflict was also very poor, not only could only be controlled manually, but the transmitted picture was also very blurry, as if it was still stuck in the 90s. This fully shows that the intelligence of the "Lancet" at that time was still very low, and the signal transmission was also very poor, but this was not the end, its strike capability was also very average, and the maximum range was only 20 kilometers. Coupled with the inability to launch at the forefront, the need to patrol and search for a long time in depth of the enemy, resulting in a low strike success rate. The West's ban on the export of electronic parts to Russia has made the Lancet even worse, and the already small output has further declined.
I thought that the Russian army would be difficult to use the Lancet, but I did not expect that it not only increased production, but also had powerful automatic search and anti-electronic jamming capabilities, which can identify the radars of tanks, artillery and air defense systems, and even select higher-value targets to strike. The Lancet's performance has improved in recent months, destroying 601 targets, including 498 vehicles and artillery, infantry fighting vehicles, armored vehicles and anti-aircraft missile launchers, as well as multiple rocket launchers, towed artillery and self-propelled guns.
And most of these achievements are witnessed by video, which is a real record. And at this time, one cannot help but ask, who provided the technology to the Russian army? If you want to upgrade the Lancet as a whole, you need to have a variety of advanced flight control, navigation systems, as well as excellent chips and transmission technology, which is something that only UAV countries can do, why can the Russian army achieve it? Although Russia's military industrial strength has indeed improved greatly in this year, the improvement in science and technology is not easy to achieve.
According to the British Reuters, Russia has received technology and accessories provided by Singapore and UAE companies, plus military enterprises in the United States, Japan and other countries have also been selling spare parts to Russia, so Russia has the opportunity to establish UAV spare parts and technology supply chains from all over the world. It can be seen that the production capacity and technological upgrading of the "Lancet" cannot be separated from the support of various countries, and the so-called sanctions and blockade of Russia by the West have long been self-defeating.
