British analysts say Russia's small Lancet kamikaze drones are likely to be among the most effective new capabilities Russia has deployed to Ukraine in the past 12 months.
— Traditionally, Russia has used small UAVs primarily for reconnaissance. Thanks to its offensive capabilities, the Lancet represents a step forward in Russia's use of this category of weapons, the report says.
The lancets are manufactured by the aircraft manufacturing company ZALA Aero Group. ZALA also produces the small Orlan 10 UAV, which Russia often uses in conjunction with the Lancet to detect targets.
At the same time, British intelligence notes that Ukraine has also succeeded with small UAVs.
