Polish Company WB Group has created the Warmate 20 long-range combat unmanned aerial vehicle.
The drone has a highly effective warhead weighing 20 kg.
The exact range, as well as detailed specifications, is kept secret, but it is measured in hundreds of kilometers.
The drone is powered by a proprietary internal combustion engine developed by WB Group.
The UAV versions with a jet engine are also being developed.
This is the first long-range drone presented by a Polish manufacturer that has a long-standing cooperation with Ukraine.
Warmate is a class of loitering munition in service with the Ukrainian Defense Forces and the Polish Army.
The latest versions of the Warmate 3 are capable of operating in the absence of a GPS signal and autonomously homing in on a target using computer vision.
The BSP-U drone, which comes from Warmate, with a 5 kg warhead, is used as part of the Polish Army’s Gladius strike and reconnaissance system.
This analysis is based on information from the Ukrainian Military Portal, which provides detailed insights into the capabilities and strategic implications of this new UAV.
