Ukrainian forces shared fresh information about the concealed mid-range drone employed to strike Russia's R-280 supply route well beyond the southern battle lines.

The 412th Nemesis Brigade from the Unmanned Systems Forces posted detailed images and launch preparation videos on Saturday featuring the attack aircraft known as the Morrigan.

This fixed-wing drone features a nose-mounted single propeller and is built domestically for missions deep in hostile territory according to the brigade statement.

With manufacturer approval the unit lifted the veil on this covert aircraft calling the Morrigan its key mid-range asset in a public post.

Footage of pre-flight preparations shows the Morrigan measuring about four to five feet with angled wings and dual tail fins launched via rail or catapult system without needing a runway.

The Morrigan belongs to a growing category of drones Ukraine has deployed more often this year to hit Russian positions and supply lines roughly 20 to 300 kilometers from active fighting.

These aircraft weigh less than long-range models targeting Russian industry yet adopt fixed-wing layouts unlike the quadcopters common near the front.

Analysts and Ukrainian leaders note the aim is to disrupt Russian advances by compelling retreats from areas once considered secure for resupply.

The 412th achieved this by using the Morrigan against the 370-mile R280 Novorossiya highway that feeds Russian forces in the south.

The brigade stated the aircraft has struck targets in Crimea multiple times destroying key Russian air defenses and support elements while now focusing on supply lines from Mariupol to Crimea.

The R280 connects Rostov-on-Don to Crimea crossing occupied southern Ukrainian land and lies typically 50 to 75 miles from the front along the Sea of Azov coast through Mariupol and Melitopol.

Last week the unit released videos of multiple strikes on convoys and fuel stops along the route claiming dozens of trucks and stations destroyed.

At the time the brigade referred to the platform only as a secret wing built specifically for such attacks without naming it.

Officials backed by Russia in occupied areas announced Monday efforts to develop alternate paths for the R280 due to increased Ukrainian strikes since mid-May noting civilian and commercial use of the road.

Russian state outlet TASS reported at least five Ukrainian strikes on the R280 last week including three on supply or fuel vehicles.

On May 21 the Russian-backed Kherson governor Vladimir Saldo directed a temporary shutdown of sections of the highway to non-essential civilian traffic.
