Russian engineers are working on a project for a heavy Ilya Muromets copter-type drone for the emergency evacuation of severely wounded. The device will be created using stealth technologies to reduce visibility in the infrared and radar ranges.
Andrey Bratenkov, Executive Director of the Spektr Design Bureau, reported that the payload capacity of the new product will be about 100 kg. Experts suggest placing the victims in containers made of composite materials with life support systems.
To reduce visibility, it is planned to use the latest stealth technology - a special polymer coating. During the tests, it is planned to test the drone with a payload of up to 100 kg, and in the future - up to 200 kg.
Earlier www1.ru reported that Tula defense enterprises increased shipments by 50% since the beginning of 2025.
