The Armed Forces of Ukraine destroyed enemy armored vehicles with unknown weapons
Ukrainian forces began to destroy Russian army armored vehicles with unknown weapons.
What we know
A video appeared on the network showing an unknown object flying over the military equipment of russia. After approaching the target at a sufficient distance, it activated the submunition, which destroyed the enemy. At the same time the unidentified object continued its flight.
The principle of operation is similar to the effect of hitting targets with SMArt or BONUS 155 mm caliber ammunition for German Panzerhaubitze 2000 artillery. However, the unidentified flying object moves too slowly compared to the SMArt or BONUS.
#Ukraine : A Russian infantry fighting vehicle filmed being hit with an unknown top-attack munition. Though it looks somewhat similar to previously seen SMArt submunitions, some aspects such as speed and angle are different here. Possibly we are seeing something not documented before. pic.twitter.com/uS3eb0aAfp

There are suggestions that the video shows the Phoenix Ghost drone. But we still don't know the working principle of the barraging ammunition, or what it looks like.
