Ukraine prepares for a major attack deep into Russia - Drones able to hit over 3,000 km are produced

A new ammunition has entered service with the armed forces of Ukraine. According to Bild media outlet, this year Ukraine will be able to use drones with a range of up to 2000 km or more. They will fill the shortage of medium- and long-range missiles. According to the source, by the end of the year, 10 manufacturers will supply the Armed Forces with drones with a range of up to 2500 km.
“Our specialists have developed the Sokol-300 drone, which can fly up to 3300 km”, Bild sources said.
According to Bild's calculations, the new Ukrainian weapon will be able to attack targets, for example, in the Murmansk region. There are about 80 military bases there. Among them is the Olenya airfield, where strategic bombers are based, which are firing on Ukraine.There, Moscow has stationed a significant portion of its bombers, which are increasingly participating in airstrikes in Ukraine. Strategic bombers such as the T-95 and Tu-160 are also deployed in this part of Russia. The range of the Sokol-300 puts Russian bombers deployed in the far north at risk. As a result, the Russian Olenya airbase located on the Kola Peninsula could be a direct target of the new Ukrainian drone. Reports suggest that a large-scale Russian attack on February 7 was executed by nine bombers that took off from Olenya.
The engineers from the “Luch” design bureau have designed an attack drone called Sokol-300, which can be powered by several types of engines.
Its control system consists of an inertial block and laser gyroscopes, which were developed by the tool company “Arsenal”. The drone is equipped with RK-10, P2-M, and RK-2P missiles, capable of hitting targets at a distance of up to 10 km. In addition, the drone can carry a synthetic aperture radar along with a small radar station.
The Sokol-300 measures 8.5 meters in length, and with a full wingspan, it reaches up to 14 meters wide.
