The Russian military has been provided with a portable airfield "Ant" for launching drones from hard-to-reach places. This was reported by an official representative of the Hermes Design Bureau (part of the Kaisant Research and Production Association).
The airfield is a radio-controlled trolley with interference-protected Hermes communication and a ground control station.
In hibernation mode, kamikaze drones are delivered on the "Ant" to the place of use, after which they take off one by one in the desired direction.
Thanks to the "Ant", it is possible to deliver drones as discreetly as possible to the place from where it is necessary to launch directly and carry out an instant bombardment.
The "Ant" is compact, its dimensions are 80 by 90 cm. The trolley is painted in camouflage colors for disguise. The weight of the trolley is 27 kg, the carrying capacity is 25 kg, the speed of movement is 9 km/h over rough terrain.
Earlier www1.ru reported that two Tu-160 "White Swan" missile carriers flew over the Arctic Ocean.
