Testing of the new cumulative warhead for the Warmate unmanned aerial vehicles has been successfully completed. This is reported by the Defence24 publication. The publication notes that the tests were carried out in difficult weather conditions, including strong crosswinds and precipitation.

The mass of the head is about two kilograms, and the armor penetration exceeds 300 millimeters. In the case of tanks based on post-Soviet technologies, such penetration significantly increases the likelihood of their destruction, especially in the case of an attack into the rear of the vehicle, from the sides and from above

– it is noted in the publication.

The publication adds that the new warhead will be very effective against infantry fighting vehicles, armored personnel carriers and other specialized military vehicles.

Defence24 recalls that Warmate unmanned aerial vehicles are currently being mass-produced. To date, more than five thousand units have been released. At the same time, it is emphasized that the new warhead is completely interchangeable with those already used in these UAVs.

The Warmate system is used in combat conditions in Ukraine, by Polish territorial defense forces, as well as by at least one NATO country

– reminds me of the publication.

It is worth noting that the Russian military has already destroyed similar UAVs in the area of its operation in Ukraine. In particular, in May of this year, such a device was shot down in the airspace of the Kherson region. At that time, the Russian Defense Ministry stressed that the barrage ammunition was destroyed by fire from a 23-mm ZU-23-2 anti-aircraft gun.
