Russia publicly showcased newer air-launched precision standoff weapons (S-71M Monokhrom, S-71K Kovyor, and S8000 Banderol) tied to lessons from Ukraine: cheaper, producible-in-volume strike munitions with some low-observable shaping. The S-71M is described as a compact turbojet-powered weapon using an OFAB-250-class warhead and primarily inertial guidance, while the S-71K is portrayed as a more capable variant with electro-optical guidance and greater onboard processing.
