The "Hortensia" unmanned aerial vehicles have been equipped with a new grenade launcher firing system. This was reported by the People's Front.
The "Hortensia" devices are equipped with a special system, on which any attachments can be mounted in the future - dropping, detonation, or VOG (high-explosive fragmentation grenade) dropping systems. Our system allows to drop 14 munitions at once, it is used when it is necessary to cover a group of infantry that has entered a forest belt with "carpet bombing", or to bomb open-type trenches and dugouts. It can be used one by one, in pairs, one drum of seven VOGs, or both at once.
The system received high marks from the military. "Hortensia" allows performing various combat tasks - from reconnaissance to cargo dropping, and soldiers also use it as a strike kamikaze drone.
