The released video shows how this FPV can accelerate sharply and reach speeds of up to 205 km/h. It also shows several hits by the «Werewolf» on Russian reconnaissance and strike UAVs. The «Wild Hornets» note that these Ukrainian drones have already hit «a lot of targets.»
«The Werewolf is the younger brother of our high-speed interceptor Sting, which has significantly greater capabilities», — the company added.
The Sting drone was first shown last fall. It was the first drone specifically designed to defeat Iranian «Shahed» drones launched by the Russians. At the same time, the «Sting» costs much less than the Russian-Iranian drones and can fly at speeds of more than 160 km per hour and climb to an altitude of about 3 km.
In February, Wild Hornets showed testing a new version of the Sting drone. It can fly twice as long while maintaining its speed, which has increased to 200 km/h.
