@piotr_butowski Very interesting! Would you be able to share that publication?

See my latest post (@Arms_Research) on the UB-105 Chemical Warfare Agent Imitator Munitions in #Ukraine.

The UB-105 was first discussed by Ukraine (@UKRinNLD) at the 106th EC session of the @OPCW and I'm adding technical assessments and context 👇

Interesting development in the in #UkraineRussiaWar - a #Russian-developed warhead that can be mounted on #UAVs to intercept others.

Like with any such innovation, it will be interesting to see if this warhead will actually reach front-line troops in any quantity.

Powered munitions known as one-way-attack unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have become common in the skies of Ukraine and the Middle East.

We added several to the OSMP this week, beginning with the Iranian-developed Shahed-131 & Shahed-136.

Some #Russian forces in #Ukraine are testing an improvised "drone trap" based on 122 mm flechette-carrying artillery projectiles.

The projectiles are placed near positions likely to be struck and rigged to fire on command like gigantic flechette guns.
