How did Yemen achieve invincible offensive power in 10 years?
According to Webangah News quoted by Mehr News Agency, the Al Jazeera news site, quoting some Zionist sources, writes that the Jaffa drone that flew deep into Tel Aviv last Friday targeted the occupied territories, it is similar to the drones Samad that the Yemeni armed forces used They had unveiled it. Referring to the 2,000 km route covered by this drone, these sources emphasized that the said drone used new routes to mislead the missile defense systems of the Zionist regime.
Al Jazeera, referring to the variety of drones of the Yemeni armed forces, emphasized that some of these drones for monitoring and gathering information and some other Drones are explosive. The new Jaffa drone is also an advanced type of drones Samad is 1, 2, 3 and 4, all of which have the ability to perform various missions.
According to this report, Samad 1 was produced in 2017 and has a range of 150 It was 200 km. Samad 2, which was unveiled the following year and its range increased to 1,000 km, is capable of carrying 40-50 kg warheads.
Samad 3 UAV It is long-range that can fly up to more than 1500 km. This UAV is equipped with a conventional camera and advanced infrared cameras for day and night missions and uses advanced equipment to transmit information. The additional load that this drone can carry is about 50 to 70 kg.
Samad 4 was unveiled in 2021 and missions dual intelligence and offensive observation on its agenda. Probably, this drone has a range of more than 2000 kilometers and has the feature of avoiding radar.
generation of drones Samad shows the high experience of Yemeni Ansarullah in the technology of drones and shows how the Yemenis are using drones Moved in progress missions.
Ansarullah has also unveiled the 2,500 km long drone “Waid” to attack Ground targets can be used from a long distance. This drone can be used as an explosive drone and explode after hitting the target.
Vaid with a length of 3 and a half meters and a width of two and a half meters equipped with triangular fins and has a warhead between 30 and 50 kg. The motor is included in the price behind this drone.
Ansarullah tactics in drone attacks
Ansarullah has made significant progress in the drone war and their plans in this regard have two features has a special The first feature is long-range attacks. In the development of their drone capabilities, the Yemenis have a special priority on the long-range drones and this issue in the development Their missile capability is also quite visible, and as we can see, the range of their missiles started from 250 and 400 km in 2015 and reached 800 km with Barkan missiles in 2016, and in 2023, the Agil ballistic missile with a range of more than 1000 km. Unveiled.
Of course, in 2019, Ansarullah had tested its Burkan 3 missile with a range of 1,200 km, but another Ansarallah ballistic missile was used during the Al-Aqsa storm operation. which probably has a range between 1,350 and 1,900 kilometers and its explosive warhead is over one ton.
Cruise missiles, including the Quds missile with a range of more than 1,650 km, are among Ansarallah’s other missile capabilities, which make it possible to carry out precise attacks at long distances. This missile is able to fly at low altitudes so as not to be detected and destroyed by radar. It is possible to equip these missiles with a traditional warhead or an existing nuclear warhead, and it is also possible to control it after firing.
The second basic feature of the missile and UAV program of the Yemeni forces is the variety of offensive products in the air field, which It gives them more tactical maneuvering power. The use of diverse and common weapons is a fighting method that is used in the framework of the integration of different weapons to evolve these weapons. For example, Yemeni forces use drones to attack radar systems before launching a major attack, and then attacks with ballistic and cruise missiles rather than missile defense systems. Despite the diversity in the tactics of each of these weapons, they do not have the power to intercept them. In such an operation, a third team can also be used, whose mission is in charge of monitoring and investigating the effects of a possible impact on the enemy’s equipment.
Yemen’s missile power is invincible
James Rogers, professor of war studies at the University of Southern Denmark, says that joint and diverse attacks are carried out to defeat the enemy’s advanced defense systems, and although it is possible to succeed against these attacks in the past existed, but with the advancement of drones that some international parties such as the Yemeni armed forces and Hezbollah have achieved and the ability to reproduce or create innovation and diversity in production They also have them, it has become very difficult, if not impossible, to deal with this war method.
This was one of the most important factors that made Ansarullah focus on the development of the UAV force from the very beginning. to concentrate and expand its technologies in this field.
import and production of drone technology almost cheap and easy Al-Sosol and it has become a serious challenge for fighters in asymmetric wars.
Rogers emphasized that by the beginning of 2040 movements such as Yemen’s Ansarullah and Lebanon’s Hezbollah could drones make themselves completely automatic using artificial intelligence, and this makes the threats of drone more serious and in additionAerial drones provide the basis for land and sea drones.
