The Roselectronica holding (part of Rostec) has presented the Chistyulya portable system, which suppresses enemy drones within a radius of up to 1 km, and also blocks the transmission of photo and video data. The equipment was developed by engineers at TsNII Tsiklon.
The device is made in the form of a case with dimensions of 34*28*17 cm and weighing up to 8 kg, and has three types of antennas that emit a powerful pulse. Chistyulya can be controlled remotely to protect military personnel from being hit by missiles attacking radio-emitting targets.
It is specified that after activation, the anti-drone system creates a signal in the form of a dome. When approaching the Chistyulya's area of operation, an enemy drone may hover in the air, crash, or return to its point of departure - this depends on the type of aircraft and its initial settings.
The complex is powered by a network or from an integrated battery (autonomous operation time - up to 100 minutes). Thanks to the cooling system, Chistyulya works without interruptions.
