Complementing it is the KUB-2E, another Kalashnikov product with a 40 km range, 150 km/h flight speed, and 3 kg explosive payload with both manual and automatic target acquisition and engagement modes.
Together, the drones make an unbeatable and highly deadly team, with SKAT-350M scoping targets, and KUB-2Es sent in for the kill. The drones are the latest in Russia’s ever-growing arsenal of sophisticated, battletested and production-ready combat UAVs, which have taken centerstage in the hellish, highly automated and technologically sophisticated Ukrainian conflict zone.
