In response to demand from frontline units, the FP-2 series of drones was developed as a mid-range alternative to the FP-1. The design of the FP-1 was adapted for a reduced range of 200 km, while its warhead weight was increased to 105 kg. Some warheads used by the FP-2 series are existing aerial bombs, while others are developed by outside suppliers. A future upgrade will increase the FP-2's warhead weight to 158 kg. |
