RAM-2X
The RAM-2X is an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) and loitering munition developed by Ukraine first unveiled in April 2024.[1] It uses an X-wing configuration for manoeuvrability. It's an upgraded version of the RAM-II drone, a design based on the DeViRo Leleka-100.[2]
While exact specifications have not been disclosed, it's rumoured of being capable to carry a warhead weighing up to 3 kg, reach speeds of 160 km per hour, hit targets at distances of more than 150 km, and operating under electronic warfare conditions.[3][4][5][6]
In December 2024, the system was presented as being used with Ukrspecsystems' Shark drone in the spotter role.[7][8][9]
Operational history
[edit | edit source]The RAM-2X is being used by Ukrainian forces during the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
