Satellite imagery has identified a significant new drone port in Russia's Oryol region, dedicated to the next-generation 'Geran-4' and 'Geran-5' kamikaze drones. The images show launchers for these drones that reach 80 meters in length, which is three times longer than the launchers used for the older Geran-2 model. The facility also includes numerous garages for drone storage, protective concrete bunkers, and ongoing construction to expand the port's capabilities. This infrastructure expansion indicates Russia is scaling up its production and launch capacity for advanced long-range attack drones.
