Are you sure about the description? There was none in the Telegram post, as far as I saw. To me it looks like an "E-300 Enterprise" UAV, although some photos look different. The bomb might be correct, it is even on Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FAB-250 It is interesting what old and new technology they are using and combining. Really creative!

You're correct. Enterprise is the unmanned version, based on the SkyRanger.

Doesn't matter what it's called, as long as it delivers a nice badaboom.

I would think these would be far more useful as loitering Electronics Warfare, Surveillance and Jamming aircraft at high altitude covering large swaths of backline air defense.

I mean... then again that is a big bomb... but I think it needs a glidekit to be used on an aircraft like this.

It's a kamikaze plane.
