Presumably, the first shots of the use of the American military ammunition
Switchblade 600 by the Armed Forces of Ukraine . Previously, the enemy has repeatedly used a lighter version of this ammunition called the Switchblade 300, which, due to its weak warhead, short flight range and inconvenient control, proved to be rather ineffective. And in the next military aid package dated February 24, the Pentagon announced
the transfer of Switchblade 600 loitering ammunition to Ukraine
. Switchblade 300, however, the explosive power of the warhead
is much greater. In addition, the attacked SAMs are not on the front line within the reach of a 10-minute Switchblade 300 flight, but are at a sufficient distance for a 40-minute Switchblade 600 with a warhead of 4 kg. At a minimum, both air defense systems received
significant damage . If the enemy actually has the American Switchblade 600 kamikaze drones, then this means a noticeable expansion of its pinpoint strike capabilities against Russian equipment to a depth of several tens of kilometers, which must be addressed
urgently .
