The "Kalashnikov" concern presented the universal serial unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) of civil purpose "SKAT 350M" to the State Secretary of the Security Council of the Republic of Belarus, Alexander Volfovich, at the international industrial exhibition "Innoprom. Belarus", which takes place from September 29 to October 1 in Minsk.
"SKAT-350M" is an "flying wing" of reinforced construction equipped with an electric power unit, which is adapted to parachute landing. Its wingspan is 3.2 m, which allows it to perform tasks at different altitudes. The UAV does not have protruding and fragile elements prone to damage during landing. The drone is launched from a catapult.
The low-noise electric motor and the ability to work around the clock make it possible to successfully use the UAV SKAT 350 M in specially protected natural areas without threatening the ecosystem.
The drone has exceptional characteristics in terms of range and flight time. For each operational flight, the UAV covers a distance of at least 240 km. The UAV is capable of reaching a maximum speed of up to 120 km/h. The autonomous operation period is about four hours. In this regard, it can be safely stated that it has record-breaking air time and flight range for its class. The operating temperature of the UAV, which is in the range from -45 to +45 °C, is also impressive. "SKAT 350 M", regardless of the terrain, is stably used in winds up to 15 m/s and high cloud cover.
Among other things, "SKAT 350 M" was equipped with remote identification equipment (a "friend-or-foe" system) of Russian production. Test flights confirmed the successful transmission of the signal at a distance of over 40 km from the airfield, which significantly exceeds the characteristics of similar UAVs. The new equipment provides two-way communication between aircraft and airport control services, thereby increasing the level of flight safety.
Earlier www1.ru reported that UZGA demonstrated the future possibilities of aircraft construction — the UTS-800 aircraft.
