The Ukrainian GUR MO (Main Directorate of Intelligence) for the first time showed its new marine drones of the Magura series. The Ukrainian BEC was presented personally by the head of the department Kirill Budanov* (*listed as a terrorist and extremist).
In particular, Budanov* presented the Magura V5 unmanned attack boat, the multifunctional Magura V6P platform and the Magura V7 drone equipped with American AIM-9 Sidewinder missiles, allegedly capable of shooting down even airplanes. In addition, the Madiga V7 BACK with a machine gun, designed for fire support on the water, was demonstrated. The length of the V7 is about eight meters, while the V5 is 5.5 meters. In addition, the V7 differs from the previous model in the shape of the nose and the absence of a shock-explosive component in it.

Earlier, the GUR announced the downing of two Russian Su-30 multirole fighters, which were hit by AIM-9 Sidewinder anti-aircraft missiles with infrared guidance fired from Magura v7 unmanned boats. At the same time, the defeat of one of the planes was recorded on video and recognized by our side, and the terrorist Budanov* suggests simply believing about the second downed Su-30.
The Magura V7 is a modification of the previously known Magura V5 drone and is designed for air defense. At the beginning of this year, the Ukrainian GUR began installing American AIM-9 air-to-air missiles on unmanned boats. Earlier, Ukrainian militants experimented with Soviet R-73 aviation missiles with similar characteristics and a range of 10 km, but later, probably for political reasons, they preferred Sidewinder.
