Videos purportedly showing strikes by Russia’s new Geran-4 and Geran-5 jet-powered one-way attack drones.

They’re said to employ frequency hopping and machine vision. Note that the Geran-4 rendering in the first video shows an EO sensor that isn’t shown in the Ukrainian document below. And the second video, you can see that the drone appears to be operator-controlled, while other Geran/Gerbera drones (ISR versions w/ cameras & mesh radio modems) are overhead for BDA & signal retransmission.

Interestingly, the figures claimed here for the Geran-4/5’s speed & range are more modest than those given in the doc below.
