Russia Upgraded Iranian Drones to Boost Its Accuracy

Russia has allegedly upgraded the Iranian Shahed136 kamikaze drones guiding system, enhancing its lethality and accuracy against Ukrainian targets, reported the Odesa Journal, citing a military expert. Iranian drone attacks are already wreaking havoc on Ukrainian cities. These attacks highlighted how Russia is aggressively using Iranianmade attack drones to support its military effort in Ukraine. Oleksandr Kovalenko, a military expert, disclosed that Russian drones produced in Iran had their inertial guidance systems replaced by GLONASS control units, Russias satellite navigation system. The Kamikaze Shahed136 UAVs, according to Kovalenko, have been modified by Russian engineers. He underlined that Moscow has now installed its domestic GLONASS control modules in place of the inertial navigation system, standard on these drones.
