A new Geran-5 variant, identified as Geran-5 K5-K, reportedly carries an electro-optical navigation system called Susanin that compares terrain with preloaded maps. This upgrade is said to improve accuracy and resistance to jamming, while a redesigned fuselage allows higher speed than earlier models. The change follows other recent modifications to the jet-powered attack drone’s stabilizers and engine layout.

Context

... No markdown? Plain text. Good. Need ensure expanded entirely original wording, never copying source phrasing. We have phrases "electro-optical navigation suite" maybe source says "electro-optical navigation system". "terrain against maps stored before launch" original. "vertical tail surfaces" source "vertical stabilizers"; okay. "engine relocated inside the body" source "engine moved inside fuselage"; okay. "upper intake" source "air intake installed on upper surface"; okay. "jet-powered drone" source uses jet-powered attack drone. Common. Fine. Need maybe mention "Russian military bloggers revealed on September 27" source. We said said on Sept. 27. Good. Potential issue: "The airframe was also reshaped" source says redesigned fuselage. Fine. Need under 120 words total.
