Zelensky showed a new Ukrainian drone missile 'Palyanytsia' (video).
Yesterday, the first successful combat use of the new Ukrainian weapon took place - the long-range drone missile "Palyanytsia". Today, President Volodymyr Zelensky showed what it looks like.
"In two and a half years of full-scale war, Russia has launched about 10,000 missiles of various types at Ukraine and more than 33,000 KABs. Attacks on our cities can be stopped by striking the carriers of this weapon - Russian aircraft at military airfields."
Yesterday, the first successful combat use of our new weapon took place - the Ukrainian long-range drone missile "Palyanytsia". Developed with our own efforts to destroy the offensive potential of the enemy," the head of state said.
He emphasized that there will be more drone missiles, "as there have been more of our long-range strike drones, the results of which we see almost every day."

As stated in the video, within the range of the drone missile are two dozen Russian military airfields. It is also noted that the development was completed phenomenally quickly - in a year and a half.
"Palyanytsia" will be launched from a ground platform. The drone missile has a turbojet engine. And the cost of "Palyanytsia" is significantly lower than its counterparts. Work is underway to make it cheaper and increase production.
Recall that earlier Zelensky showed other Ukrainian developments that successfully destroy occupiers at sea, in the air, and on land.
