'Dragonfly' weighs 12 kilograms. It is equipped with a TNT block. If during its 50 minutes of flight the drone finds  mines with a nonlinear transitions detector, it displays them on the screen and then explodes them.

In addition to military objectives, 'Dragonfly' can assist civilian purposes too. The drone will find missing people under snowdrifts and in the woods if they had any radio-electronic devices with them. 

The drone is also capable of monitoring the area and sending data about objects in the area to its control point in real scale of time. It can fly up to 15-20 kilometers from the operator.
