Russia has developed a high-payload and durable unmanned aerial vehicle of the "flying wing" aerodynamic type, which can be armed with missiles. This was announced by a representative of a group of volunteer developers of related products for the front from Yaroslavl.
The wing was made at the request of soldiers on the front lines. The device can be used as a kamikaze drone, reconnaissance aircraft, and communication repeater. The fuselage of the drone is made of plywood, and the wing is made of foam.
We have made a device with increased payload capacity at the request of the soldiers. The wing itself weighs 3 kg, and the total take-off weight is up to 10 kg. That is, depending on the tasks performed, we can distribute 7 kg between the battery and the payload.
Earlier, www1.ru reported that the Kalashnikov arms concern included the Karakurt drone in the developed third-generation Legionnaire combat gear. Currently, the drone is being tested on the front lines.
