These drones, developed by companies like Reactive Drone, are equipped with advanced features such as self-developed solid-state batteries and multiple redundant communication channels including Starlink, encrypted digital radio, and LTE. The Kazhan series, first seen in late 2022 and produced at scale from 2024, has earned a fearsome reputation among Russian soldiers for its effectiveness in delivering up to 70 pounds of munitions.
