Yes. On September 30, 2026, Serhii “Flash” Beskrestnov, an adviser to President Volodymyr Zelensky on defense technologies, said Russia for the first time used a jet-powered drone fitted with a shaped-charge cutting warhead built to destroy high-voltage power pylons and steel bridge structures. He described a roughly 40-kilogram main charge plus four additional destructive modules and warned Moscow may aim the weapon at important high-voltage transmission lines.
The claim came amid what Ukrainian officials called the heaviest combined strike on energy infrastructure in months, with emergency outages reported in Kyiv and several oblasts. Source: The Kyiv Independent — Russia strikes Ukrainian pylon with steel-cutting drone for 1st time.
