"At a range of up to 20 km, we have a large number of copters that use FPV drones, but at night it is quite difficult to find a target at a range of 20 km. We can see this from statistics. We need to hit at 40 km. Lancet-type drones "quite high-tech, and it took half a year to accelerate the market in this direction," he explained.
Fedorov added that the first contracts will be concluded in the coming weeks. They will hit the battlefield soon after.

The ruzzian Lancet has a maximum range of 40 km.
My guess is that the Ukranian X-wing drones will be resistant to EW and will target ruzzian lancet operators.
“Out of 64 missiles and drones, 44 were shot down.”
An increased penetration rate.
Ukraine short of ammo, Russia using new tactics, or just aiming at less defended/lower priority targets?
