we broke our record
Ababil 5 took American ship for around 24 hour under observation .

it seems the endurance of the drone is more than what at first have been taught considering it happened in Indian ocean,


wonder after it come out if producing more Mohajer-6 instead of this Ababil-5 is still a wise move considering it has less endurance and its more observable by radars and can carry less

Akinci have two of them it give it an advantage and its aero dynamic is also favor it better .
wonder what would have been the specification if Shahed-149 used a more advanced body design like Kaman-22 and how it affected its endurance and flight ceiling

the problem is they used an stationary target , attacking it not much different than attacking a building on land .
they show they can moving target in red sea , wonder why they didn't use the same techniques and used some moving target
