The State Corporation presented a fundamentally new unmanned off-airport based transport system S-76 at the Army-2024 forum. This is a vertical take-off and landing aircraft.
The development will allow delivering cargo weighing up to 300 kg over a distance of up to 500 km. The machine does not require airfield infrastructure and specially prepared sites. Take-off, flight along the route and landing are performed fully automatically, without the direct participation of the operator.
At the moment, the project is at the stage of testing basic technical solutions and key technologies. In the future, it is planned to organize industrial production of products.
The state corporation noted that the S-76 project will allow deploying automated unmanned transport systems in Russia, through which it will be possible to perform air cargo transportation much more economically and with minimal human involvement.
Earlier www1.ru reported that the Russian Armed Forces began using a new type of missile to defeat the enemy. They fly significantly further and are twice as accurate thanks to the built-in motor.
