The Ukrainian company DeViRo has developed the Bulava kamikaze strike drone. The drone was created at the request of the Ukrainian military. The unmanned aerial vehicle complex has been used on the battlefield since 2024 and has proven its effectiveness in destroying enemy armored vehicles, air defense systems, and electronic warfare, Military reports.
The Bulava has a take-off weight of 11,5 kg, is launched from a catapult and reaches speeds of up to 100 km/h thanks to an electric motor. The drone can stay in the air for up to 50 minutes, working on both moving and stationary targets. The maximum range of attack is 55 km when using a repeater and 35 km without it.
A feature of the drone is its resistance to electronic warfare, which is achieved thanks to protected communication channels and MESH data transmission technology. Guidance is performed via an optical station with a day and night thermal imaging channel, and the machine vision system allows it to independently hit targets set by the operator.
The Bulava is equipped with a 3,6 kg warhead, including Ukrainian-made thermobaric cumulative warheads. Thanks to its X-shaped tail, the drone has high maneuverability, which increases its effectiveness during attacks.
Thanks to these characteristics, the Bulava enhances the capabilities of the Armed Forces of Ukraine in modern drone warfare, ensuring autonomous defeat of the enemy at long distances and in conditions of active use of electronic countermeasures.
