The drone is designed to intercept and neutralize enemy targets. Artificial intelligence (AI) technologies have been implemented in the Skvorets-PVO. The drone automatically captures the target and flies towards it at a speed of up to 270 km/h.

Among other CUST developments are the Kinzhal interceptor (integrated into an autonomous drone detection system), the Dron-X UAV (equipped with a homing head), the Ovod-PVO strike UAV (delivers a kinetic strike or strikes with a warhead), and the Bolt (equipped with a target detection system based on radar).

Earlier at the forum, a representative of the Design Bureau announced an increase in the production of Piranha FPV drones.
