The authorities of the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug (Yugra) intend to actively develop the unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) project in the coming years.
In particular, we are talking about drones, underwater and surface drones, unmanned vehicles, said Pavel Tsiporin, Deputy Governor of the region, at a meeting dedicated to creating infrastructure for unmanned transport.
We have developed the "Concept for the Development of Unmanned Systems Infrastructure"
It is known that permanent drone flights may be launched between Khanty-Mansiysk and Nyagan in 2025. By 2030, the region is expected to create 86 UAV monitoring points.
In addition, an unmanned aviation infrastructure operator will appear in Yugra. The Russian Post project for the delivery of goods by helicopter-type drones has also started here. However, it later became known that the project has been frozen.
According to the ANO "Agency for Technological Development", by 2030, drone flights will be carried out at 45 Russian airports. A unified infrastructure for such flights will be built in all regions of the country over the next 7 years.
