Two Ukrainian brigades have received batches of Grey Widow 1 strike drones. The drone manufacturer - Nebesna Kara - said that the 28th Separate Mechanized Brigade and the 164th Signals Intelligence Brigade will receive the drones. "The loitering munition, also known as GREY WIDOW 1M, is now destroying the invaders' equipment and the occupiers themselves in the south," the manufacturer said.

The 'Kamikaze Wing' is used to engage enemy targets over long distances. Where an FPV drone is powerless against distance and enemy electronic warfare, Grey Widow reaches the target and destroys the invaders' equipment.
