The "Izhevsk Unmanned Systems" research and production association (part of the "Kalashnikov" concern) has demonstrated a model of the transportable retransmission and remote observation complex "Granat-4-E". It includes a mobile control point based on a KAMAZ vehicle with a van body and an unmanned aerial vehicle.
The complex is designed for round-the-clock remote monitoring of the area using photo, video, and thermal imaging equipment, as well as high-precision target designation for artillery.
Thanks to its characteristics, the UAV helped to hit all types of targets with "Krasnopol" and "Kitolov" guided projectiles: from single enemy combat vehicles, including the American-made M1A1 Abrams tank, to crossings over water obstacles and strongholds.
The images of targets taken by the drone have sufficiently high resolution and quality. This indicates a first-class optoelectronic system that is used on board the UAV as a payload.
Technical characteristics of the "Granat-4" UAV:
- Target designation range — up to 3 km
- Flight duration — 6 hours
- Application radius — 70 km
- Cruising speed — 100 km/h
- Operating altitude range — 500-2000 m
Earlier, footage of the operation of "air motherships" for drones on the front line appeared online. UAV carriers of FPV drones are also equipped with repeaters for stable communication.
