От создателей «Иноходца»: новейший разведывательно-ударный БПЛА с двумя двигателями разработал «Кронштадт»

The drone is capable of carrying up to 450 kg of payload

Kronstadt, the company that produces the Inokhodets reconnaissance and strike unmanned aerial vehicles, announced the first successful test flight of the new drone and published an image of its silhouette.

Judging by the outlines, it could be the Sirius UAV, first presented back in 2020. It is slightly larger than the Inokhodets in size.

An important advantage of the new drone is its two engines, thanks to which the Sirius is capable of carrying more payload - 450 kg versus 200 kg.

During the first test flight, the drone confirmed its readiness for further testing of the complex. The test flight was an important stage in the implementation of the flight program for the development of this new UAV, Kronstadt noted.

Earlier www1.ru reported that carriers of "Caliber" and "Uranus" corvettes "Rezkiy" and "Aldar Tsydenzhapov" maneuvered off the coast of Indonesia.
