Parodiya

A Russian expendable decoy aircraft that Ukraine’s Air Force names in mass drone-attack reports. Ukraine’s Defence Intelligence (HUR) describes it as having no warhead and being smaller and cheaper than Shahed-136/Geran-2; an ISIS analysis describes the airframe and components. A wave report that mentions Parodiya gives no per-type count and does not identify any individual object.[1][2]
