KYIV, UKRAINE — Ukraine has unleashed its own sneaky stealth drone on Russian forces, hitting high-value targets with small bombs that ignite huge explosions and cause massive damage. Here are the details: <br /> <br /> <br />The Times of London reports that the Ukrainian army is using a nimble stealth drone that has dropped many bombs on Russian forces. <br /> <br /> <br />Developed in Ukraine, the Punisher drone has a wingspan of 2,3 meters and is designed to attack enemy fuel storage, ammo trucks and electronic warfare stations up to 50 kilometers behind enemy lines. <br /> <br /> <br />The drone’s designers say its most powerful feature is that it’s very light and small, making it almost impossible to see with the naked eye or with radar — which is why they are very hard to hit. <br /> <br /> <br />The drones use an electrical engine, which also makes them very quiet, so they are very effective at sneaking over enemy lines and hunting high-value targets. <br /> <br /> <br />The drone is launched from a special catapult by a three-man team that can easily pack the system into an SUV and blend into the countryside. The operators control the drone remotely via a laptop. <br /> <br /> <br />It uses a powerful camera to search for targets. Once the operator clicks on a target, the drone flies to it and releases the bomb automatically. <br /> <br /> <br />The Ukrainian military says the drone can carry up to three bombs up to 50 kilometers behind enemy lines, flying at an altitude of up to 400 meters. <br /> <br /> <br />It says the system has been very successful at causing damage to Russian supply lines — and at keeping Russian soldiers nervously scanning the skies above them. <br /> <br /> <br />
