Footage of Russian Lancet-51 kamikaze drone strikes on a Ukrainian Caesar 155mm wheeled self-propelled howitzer (SPG) near Shavrovo. The Caesar SPG is produced in France. There were three Lancet drone attacks, and this is the first recorded instance. The first Lancet drone, with automatic guidance, was caught in a camouflage net. The SPG then attempted to flee. The second drone attacked the SPG from a distance, using a shaped charge using a technology called "explosive projectile force (EFP)." The rangefinder onboard the Lancet drone, armed with the EFP, calculates the distance to the target and activates the shaped charge. The third drone attacked the SPG after it stopped.
