The Ministry of Defense reported the information.  

"Vidmak drones can catch up with any enemy vehicle," the statement reads.  

The Ministry added that these high-speed FPV drones are capable of pursuing any wheeled enemy vehicle. Despite their compact size, the drones carry a charge powerful enough to destroy armored vehicles and operate both day and night.

  • On the night of February 23, Russia launched a massive attack with ballistic missiles, 267 Shahed attack drones, and various types of simulator drones over Ukrainian regions.
