The Russian Armed Forces have begun using compact drones with artificial intelligence (AI) that are invulnerable to air defense (AD) systems. The compact drone can deliver 3 kg of payload to a distance of up to 90 km.
The drone is equipped with a hybrid navigation system based on LTE communication and a satellite system, as well as a camera with an AI module based on a JETSON processor. This allows the drone to protect itself from interception and automatically recognize targets.
Of particular interest is the drone's ability to detect the operation of air defense systems in real time and quickly maneuver, avoiding being hit.
High resistance to electronic warfare is also noted, which makes the device particularly effective in conditions of intense signal suppression.
Earlier www1.ru reported that mass production of a mini-version of the Geran drone has begun in Russia.
