The American company AEVEX Aerospace, which developed the Phoenix Ghost family of kamikaze drones, decided to share details about previously highly classified drones that have already participated in the Ukrainian conflict.

There is evidence that all three drones (Dagger, Dominator and Disruptor) are used in Ukraine

- it says in the publication of The War Zone.

Dagger

Thanks to the video, which was shown by the developer, one feature came to light – UAVs can be configured in such a way as to attack targets with high-explosive fragmentation ammunition, exploding in the air and showering the enemy with shrapnel from above. This method of destruction is effective when working on the enemy, who is in the trenches, behind shelters and in open areas.

Dominator

This effect is similar to the explosion of artillery shells in the air

- it is noted in the publication.

The advantage of such an explosion is to cause damage over a larger area. At the same time, the developer, fulfilling the order of the "client", equipped drones only with high-explosive fragmentation ammunition, although they can be equipped with others, for example, armor-piercing.

Disruptor

It is still unclear exactly how Phoenix Ghost drones determine where and when to detonate a warhead, whether they can hit moving targets or carry out attacks in other modes

- the author writes.

As stated on the company's website, "drones automatically detect, identify, locate, transmit [information] and strike threats with unprecedented accuracy and speed" and are able to "navigate, make decisions and complete missions without direct [human] intervention."
