The Russian drone "Prince Vandal Novgorodsky" -"an unremarkable product that has burned approximately two armies in monetary terms in 9 months" (about $2 billion), said Alexey Chadaev, General Director of SPC "Ushkuynik".
According to him, the developers plan to present the "Prince Vandal Novgorodsky" abroad. However, as Chadaev emphasized, there is nothing special about the drone.
A drone is a drone. "Prince Vandal Novgorodsky" does not stand out against the background of much more pretentious, expensive and high-tech products. It is simply cheap, with very good communication and a camera.
Chadaev noted that "interest in UAVs from unfriendly countries is far ahead of interest from friendly countries." Recently, several leaders of foreign countries attended a closed exhibition of Russian unmanned aerial systems, where the "Prince Vandal Novgorodsky" was also shown. They were impressed by the number of "Prince" destroyed equipment, he summarized.
