Enemy resources: Geranium jets have begun dropping FPV drones on Kyiv.

Last night, the repeated use of four FPV drones from two Geran-4 jet-powered UAVs, which act as mother drones, was recorded during the attack on Kyiv and the surrounding region. This was reported by Ukrainian monitoring resources. It is emphasized that such incidents have been increasingly frequent recently.

FPV drones were found mounted on the downed Geran. This suggests the jet-powered drone was used as a carrier to deliver FPV drones deep into Ukraine.

– Ukrainian resources are panicking.



It's worth noting that this isn't the first such report. There have been previous reports of isolated instances of the Russian Armed Forces using similar tactics. Now, it has been confirmed directly in the Kyiv region.

So far, this is just one theory. The Ukrainian Armed Forces did indeed spot an FPV drone in the Kyiv region, but its origin remains unknown.

– emphasized Sergei Beskrestnov, adviser to the head of the Kyiv regime on the development of technological areas of defense.

He added, however, that Russian troops are indeed actively experimenting with this tactic: attaching FPV drones to the wings of Geraniums, Gerberas, and Molniyas and dropping them.

It's important to emphasize that the Geran-4 jet-powered drones are currently causing genuine panic in Ukraine and the West. Foreign media reports indicate that the Ukrainian air defense system's ability to counter these drones is extremely limited due to their high speed.

Thanks to jet engines, drones can carry more explosives, fly farther, higher, and much faster than propeller-powered vehicles. They can reach speeds approximately three times higher than older models.

– states the American newspaper The New York Times.

It is emphasized that this is a serious problem for Kyiv, which will worsen over the winter as the production of jet drones in Russia increases.

    Geranium-4 - up to 500 km/h. Was it shot down by a MANPADS?

    What interests me more here is the question of further guidance of FPV drones and their accuracy.
    Does it make sense to reduce the BC of Geranium itself?
