Humenyuk: "Shaheds" used by the enemy to attack Ukraine have different sound characteristics
Kyiv • UNN
The "Shaheds" that the enemy is currently attacking Ukraine with have different sound characteristics, Humenyuk points out.
The "Shahed-136" kamikaze drones that the enemy is now launching in Ukraine have different sound characteristics. Presumably, the Russians are selecting the most optimal ones. This was reported by Natalia Humenyuk, head of the Joint Coordination Press Center of the Southern Defense Forces of Ukraine, during a national telethon, UNN reports.

"They often have different sound characteristics: a little louder, a little quieter - in different modifications, obviously, in different ways. There are signs that the Russians are selecting what will be more effective," said Humenyuk.
In addition, according to her, it is likely that "shahids" with a reinforced warhead are being launched in Ukraine.
"We do not yet have a conclusion on whether they have a reinforced combat unit. In particular, regarding the drone that hit a high-rise building in Odesa on March 2. However, there is an assumption among experts that some of them may indeed have a reinforced warhead," added Humenyuk.
Optional
Director of the Kyiv Scientific Research Institute of Forensic Expertise Oleksandr Ruvin previously reported that the enemy had begun to equip the Shaheda's combat unit with additional shrapnel.
"The finished striking elements look like tungsten balls of the same diameter. The principle of operation is similar to shrapnel artillery shells. At the moment of detonation, the explosive part explodes, scattering small metal fragments (shrapnel) in different directions. Shrapnel scatters and damages objects in the area of impact. Such a cynical "modification" may indicate the enemy's desire to inflict more damage directly on people. The number of ready-made striking elements that the Russians use to equip the Shahed 136 is not enough to significantly destroy structures or buildings. However, such fragments can cause severe injuries to people directly. The balls cover a large area at the moment of departure and can hit any unprotected part of the body," noted Oleksandr Ruvin.
