US-made Switchblade Kamikaze Drone Strikes Russian Tank

The Ukrainian Ministry of Defense release footage reportedly from a US-made Switchblade 300 loiter munition, also commonly referred to as kamikaze and suicide drones. The video shows the munition targeting a Russian T-72 in eastern Ukraine. The effectiveness of the strike isn't known.


Loiter munitions are unmanned, sensor-rich aerial munitions that can be used in an autonomous manner in which it flies near a target location until it detects preprogrammed target signatures such as enemy radar sites or communications transmissions. It then dives directly onto the target, detonating its payload on impact. The Kamikaze Drone may also be remotely controlled by a human pilot from a relatively safe location to destroy various targets of opportunity.
