Russian kamikaze drones

Iran’s government says it supplied “a small number” of drones to Russia before the war. But the US and the European Union have accused Iran of sending regular deliveries of drones to Russia, and the EU has imposed sanctions in response. Russia was first reported to have used a Shahed-136 drone in September 2022, attacking military targets in the Kharkiv region in the east of the country. Since then, it has used the drones to target population centres and power stations, to deprive Ukraine of electricity and heating. it has explosives in a warhead on its nose and is designed to loiter over a target until it is instructed to attack. The Shahed-136 has a wingspan of about 2.5m (8.2ft) and can be hard to detect on radar. Is Kamikaze drone the deadliest drone in Ukraine war?
