The Federal Air Transport Agency has approved the use of unmanned aerial vehicles with a multi-rotor design that can take off with a weight of more than 30 kilograms. These are the AHD-6 and Rubin A50 models. The type and developer certificates were received by VTS Jets.
The issuance of certificates for unmanned aircraft systems is an important step in strengthening the technological sovereignty of our country. This year, we have certified four drones at once.
Dobryakov emphasized that the company will continue to work to ensure that all certification procedures are as clear and convenient as possible for developers.
The AHD-6 and Rubin A50 UAS are designed for aviation-chemical and other works in agriculture at a height of up to 10 meters from the ground. These unmanned aerial vehicles can be equipped with a payload — a system for spraying liquid and solid chemicals.
The certificates that were issued confirm that the drones meet the requirements of the Federal Aviation Regulations. This means that they can fly and be in the general airspace.
Earlier, Russian President Vladimir Putin instructed the government to accelerate the development of unmanned aviation as soon as possible. This is necessary to ensure the country's technological leadership in this area.
