The Russians filmed themselves using a kamikaze drone to attack one of the Caesar self-propelled guns received from France, one of the weapons that the Ukrainians hold dear and which has largely helped to balance the forces on the battlefield in an artillery battle.

Drone footage shows the vehicle being identified with a Caesar artillery gun, before the Zala Lancet kamikaze drone attacks in full force.

Then an explosion rang out and several soldiers could be seen running away from the car.

ZALA kamikaze drones used by Russia

The most used kamikaze drones in Russia are called ZALA KYB, they are a type of “homeless munitions” – remotely piloted aircraft that can stay in the air for a long time and deliberately crash into groups of enemies or military equipment.

ZALA KYB drones are produced by Zala Aero, a subsidiary of the Kalashnikov Group. They can carry up to 3 kg of cargo (sensors and explosives), fly below the radar, with an autonomy of more than half an hour, a range of about 40 km and can reach a speed of 130 km/h.

Zala Aero also manufactures drones Lancet hall, a newer model that still has a range of around 40km, but with more configurations available and can carry between 1kg and 3kg of explosives. The Lancet model is said to have a dive speed of over 300 km/h, which is much higher than other kamikaze models.

France supplied Ukraine with 18 Caesar self-propelled guns.

Back in May, France handed Ukraine 18 Caesar self-propelled guns, 155 mm caliber artillery guns capable of striking at a distance of up to 50 kilometers.

In addition to the 18 delivered systems, Ukraine is negotiating with France to acquire 15 more Caesar guns, and at the first stage, France said it could supply Ukraine with 6 to 12 Caesar self-propelled howitzers, which were originally intended for Denmark.
