The Russian Black Sea Fleet has received the newest unmanned boat (BEC) "Katran" from the "Center for Unmanned Systems and Technologies." The product is capable of conducting combat duty in autonomous mode for a long time.
The BEC is also capable of searching for submarines, monitoring the surface, preventing sabotage, and attacking. The boat is inconspicuous to radars, uses satellite navigation and artificial intelligence. "Katran" works for up to two days and easily adapts to the combat tasks of sailors.
An unmanned boat is not so expensive to produce, which allows it to be used massively for round-the-clock work.
In the future, such drones will be combined with other artificial intelligence systems to confront the enemy and quickly detect targets at sea.
Earlier, www1.ru reported that Russian military personnel have turned a T-80BV tank into a makeshift heavy armored personnel carrier.
