The Russian army may be reinforcing the warhead of the "Shahed" drone with more explosives. It would then be capable of destroying a multi-story building from the 9th to the 5th floors.
Commander of a Ukrainian Armed Forces reconnaissance unit, Denys Yaroslavskyi said this during a broadcast of Ranok LIVE.
Currently, the warhead of the strike UAVs contains 50–55 kilograms of explosives.
“The Russians plan to increase it to 80–90 kilograms using jet propulsion. That’s already a serious problem. If such a "Shahed" hits an 8- or 9-story building, it will tear down everything to the 5th floor,” Yaroslavskyi explained.
