AFC/M23 areas under fire from FARDC's latest generation drones.
Meet the Chinese Wing Loong 2 drone, terrible in attack and intensely used since Angola's proposed ceasefire on February 18! At least 3 have been acquired by the FARDC in December 2025 and January 2026. These "dragon wings" bombard areas under AFC/M23, unfortunately, civilian casualties at times.
This drone is terrible:
1. It can carry up to 500kg of ammunition, including 6 anchored missiles.
2. Up to 32 hours of flight freedom. Its speed reaches 400 km/h.
3. It hits 10km in the air, escaping anti-aircraft batteries and jamming.
4. In Africa, these drones are used in DRC, Libya, Egypt, Algeria, Morocco and Nigeria.
Since January, according to my sources, Kinshasa is convinced that it now has military superiority over AFC/M23. Hence the attacks come from. Negotiations are just a secondary option.
The population will have to wait a long time before the war is over. And unfortunately paying the high price for this situation!
