The Russian military damaged or destroyed 37 targets of Kiev forces using Lancet loitering munitions during the past week.
The Ukrainian losses between July 14 and 20, all documented in video by Lostarmour.info, were:
- Three self-propelled howitzers, including two American-made M109;
- One self-propelled mortar, a Polish-made M120 Rak;
- 22 Towed howitzers, including seven American-made M777, two M198 and three British-Italian-made FH-70;
- One multiple rocket launchers, a Soviet-mae BM-21 Grad;
- Five Main battle tanks, including one German-made Leopard-1 and one American-made Abrams;
- One air defense systems, a Soviet-made Strela-10;
- One radar;
- Three intelligence gathering and electronic warfare systems, Ukrainian-made Plastun-RP3000 and Nota.
The Lancet was developed by the ZALA Aero Group, a subsidiary of Russia’s defense giant Kalashnikov Concern. The company produces two versions of the loitering munition, the Izdeliye-52 with an endurance of 30 minutes and a one-kilogram warhead and the larger Izdeliye-51 that has an endurance of 40 minutes and is armed with a warhead weighting three kilograms.
The loitering munition flies towards the designated area with a GLONASS-aided inertial navigation system. After arriving in the area, the operator utilizes an onboard electro-optical system via a two-way data-link to detect, track and lock on the target. A laser-ranging system then controls the detonation of the warhead.
Ukrainian attempts to stop Lancet loitering munitions with air defense fire, electronic warfare or countermeasures have so far been mostly unsuccessful.
Lostarmour.info documented 181 Lancet strikes during June. The number of documented strikes this month has reached 146. It’s worth noting that many strikes remain classified, which means the real number of strikes could be much higher.
