The Forpost-RU unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) will be equipped with loitering munitions and small-sized AESA X-band side-looking radar (SLR) stations. This was reported by military expert Evgeny Damantsev.
According to him, the developers are expanding the combat capabilities of the Forpost-RU complex by improving its design and installing new payloads.
The UAV may receive the function of dropping loitering munitions. It can be assumed that these could be modifications of the Lancet-3. Currently, the Forpost in its strike version can carry Kh-BPLA guided missiles or KAB-20 guided bombs or UPAAB-50S glide bombs.
The developers have also created a version of the Forpost with a radar complex based on an X-band AESA. It can carry out radar reconnaissance of ground and surface objects, classify moving targets, and issue target designations for units of the RViA and SKR 3M14T/K Kalibr-NK/PL.
The complex has received new payloads that have expanded its range of application. Various payloads are installed on the Forpost, allowing monitoring in the optical, radio, and radar ranges, as well as the use of aviation weapons.
Earlier www1.ru reported that T-72B3M tanks were the first to receive the serial active protection Arena-M.
