According to Khmara, they are now studying and scaling up this experience, bringing in additional specialists and units.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Bars was created as a long-range jet-powered strike drone. Its base version has a stated range of up to 700 km and a 22.5 kg warhead. The <a href=\"https:\/\/thedefender.media\/en\/2026\/09\/bars-new-specs\/\">modified platform<\/a> has a range of up to 1,000 km, a warhead of up to 60 kg and a speed of more than 700 km\/h.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A developer representative says the Bars has undergone more than 40 upgrades and iterations. The platform\u2019s modular design lets operators change the fuel-to-warhead ratio for different missions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The developer has also reported that the long-range model can be controlled in real time over enemy territory.
