Expended is the word I would probably use. AFAIK its all basically off the shelf components but the Russians aren't really capable or interested in building anything comparable. When they want drone stuff that isn't a commercial camera strapped to a cobbled together hobby plane they have to ask Israel.
Considering Ukraine is currently raining hellfire on Russian positions…this seems a tad too late?
Scholz dying in Kyiv due to a warhead detonation on 09MAY is a pretty plausible way for NATO to end up at war.
Iran can't possibly cover all that much of Russian needs so I assume there is some very specific shortage that they're helping out with a bit.

It had a small fire of totally non combat origin that required a controlled emergency sinking to extinguish.

This is good news for the Russian government, as now the 400 some dead Russian sailors do not need to acknowledged as having died in the line of duty. This is a massive cost savings:
Some of the comments mention it explodes right in front of the bunker there, which likely had someone inside it but there's no way to know. Even if that's the case though it's not a great propaganda video as it looks like it missed at least.
No, it hit the front of that covered position. The blast is directional. You can see the dust kicking up ahead of the explosion where the fragments went.
My understanding is that detonation mode is selectable for different targets depending on desired effect. Contact vs proximity to dictate what the frag effect ends up like.

A bit, but the beauty of these things is that they aren't much more than a commercial drone with a simple explosive. Russia already has alright drones, just not a lot of them.
