  • One-way attack uncrewed aerial vehicles (OWA-UAV) have recently been displayed at the Special Technology Center in St. Petersburg.

  • The Lancet and what is believed to be the MS 236 were both present.

  • This is the first known sighting of the MS 236, which was first reported on in February 2024.

  • It is a variant of the Shahed-136/ Geran 2, but with an electro-optical infrared (EOIR) seeker head.

  • This allows for greater accuracy, and targeting of moving targets during day and night.
