Ukrainians have developed a new missile drone.

Ukraine has presented a new missile drone called 'Bars'. This was announced by the Minister of Strategic Industries Herman Smertan at the briefing 'Ukrainian Weapon-2024'.

'Bars' has been added to the list of already existing missile drones 'Palyanitsa' and 'Peklo'.

However, the technical specifications of 'Bars' are currently unknown. There is no information about the image of the new weapon.

It is known only that the Ukrainian missile drone 'Bars' was created in 2024.

We now have such cruise missiles and a class of new fundamentally missile types, such as missile drones. This is 'Palyanitsa', this is 'Peklo', this is 'Ruta', this is 'Bars', - said Smertanin.

The Minister also explained that in 2023, Ukraine only produced 'Neptune' missiles. But in 2024, Ukrainian developers created many new products, significantly increasing the volume of production.

It was previously reported that the Armed Forces of Ukraine received a new FPV drone 'Rarog-10'. This drone is equipped with a carbon frame and powerful engines, which provides it with maneuverability and reliability in combat conditions.

Additionally, the Ukrainian company Brave1 tested fiber-optic FPV drones that can fly over a distance of more than 20 kilometers.

Analysis:

Ukraine continues to actively develop its military-industrial complex by creating new weapons samples. The emergence of the new missile drone 'Bars' indicates significant progress in this field. Many new developments, including the missile drones 'Palyanitsa' and 'Peklo', provide Ukraine with a powerful arsenal of cruise weapons. The new FPV drone 'Rarog-10' will also be an important addition to military forces, providing them with strike and reconnaissance capabilities. Such achievements confirm Ukraine's scientific and technological potential in the field of defense technologies. The further development of this sector could contribute to strengthening the country's defense capabilities and increasing its influence in the region.
