The latest tactics on the battlefield in Ukraine: Russia deploys "scalpel" hovering munitionsRecently, a new type of tactic has emerged on the battlefield in Ukraine, with Russian forces deploying an advanced hovering munition known as "scalpels", which could completely change the dynamics of war. The hovering ammunition, which combines the characteristics of a drone and a missile, has been under constant development since the end of the 20th century. Although initially pioneered by countries such as the United States and Israel, this new type of ** is now being adopted by Russia in the conflict in Ukraine.

This "scalpel" loitering ammunition has the advantage of high accuracy, being able to hover over the target area for a long time, identifying and striking targets with high accuracy, especially in conflicts such as Ukraine, where identifying and striking dynamic or hidden targets is crucial. They also provide a cost-effective means of causing harm while minimizing the risk to personnel and valuable equipment. The emergence of this new type of ** reflects the continuous progress of modern warfare technology, as well as the transformation of military strategy.

In addition, the characteristics and capabilities of the "Scalpel" hovering ammunition are excellent, and its combat load boasts a modular approach that can accommodate various types of warheads customized for different targets, enhancing the ability of unmanned platforms to effectively attack a wider range of targets. Moreover, its flight capabilities are powerful enough to hit targets tens of kilometers away, and it only takes a very short time to reach the maximum range. It should be noted that the "Scalpel" hovering ammunition is not intended to replace the existing "Lancet" model, but is a supplementary asset.

Each UAV has its own unique features and capabilities that can be deployed collaboratively depending on the tactical scenario. In some cases, a "Lancet" with a standard warhead is ideal, while in others a more robust "scalpel" with a specially selected combat load is more suitable. In general, the advent of this new type of "scalpel" hovering ammunition will greatly change the situation on the battlefield in Ukraine, and will also have a significant impact on future conflicts and wars.

With the continuous development of technology and the continuous evolution of the form of warfare, we have reason to believe that future warfare will rely more on advanced technology**, which also poses more challenges and thinking to us.
