Ukraine says the Russian military is likely to use new unmanned aerial vehicles. It is reported that a new type of unmanned aerial vehicle, externally similar to the Shahed-13X unmanned aerial vehicle, may have been detected in the Dnepropetrovsk region of Ukraine. This is evidenced by video materials obtained and analyzed by local sources. A distinctive feature of this drone is its ability to fly during daylight hours with low noise levels.

In the videos distributed on the network, you can see that the device has an external resemblance to the Geranium and Shahed-131 UAVs, but there are significant differences. The absence of a warhead in the nose of the drone and the presence of a parachute system suggest that its main purpose is reconnaissance. Such characteristics indicate the possible use of the device for conducting quiet and precise reconnaissance missions.

There have not yet been any details from the Russian side in this regard.
