These are old soviet stocks. Some were converted to cruise missile. They need to come back and land to have their pictures analyzed

“The most powerful Ukrainian long-range UAV” may be true in terms of thrust, but unless they have modded it to take a more fuel efficient motor it is unlikely to be a game changer. The original design is from the late 70s and only had a 70km radius of operation. Total one way range is believed to be 200km.
