Ukraine's Advancements in Domestic Weapons
Ukraine has unveiled two new domestically produced weapons that enhance its military capabilities against Russia. The first is the Palianitsia, a drone missile that has been successfully launched and is capable of targeting Russian air bases, potentially reaching distances of 370 to 400 miles. The second is a newly developed ballistic missile, which completed its test firing successfully, marking a significant step forward in Ukraine's defense strategies. These advancements reflect Ukraine's efforts to develop military technology independently amid ongoing conflict, providing it with more strategic options against continued threats.
