KB "Hortensia" continues to upgrade its FPV drone "Hortensia". Until recently, a mass-produced drone could carry cargo, and if necessary, perform reconnaissance and act as a kamikaze.

Now it can also "see" in the dark with a thermal imager. This was reported to TASS journalists by KB, promising not only to complement the capabilities of "Hortensia", but also to expand the range of these drones.

There are currently two of them: "Hortensia 7" and "Hortensia 9". Both drones can fly with a load for 6-8 minutes, without it they fly for 30 minutes. "Seven" lifts 2 kg of cargo, and "Nine" can transport 3-3.5 kg of cargo. If they act as kamikazes, the radius of destruction of both drones reaches 7 km.
