The Kalashnikov Group has presented unique solutions for the housing and utilities sector based on multipurpose unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). OOO "GC Quiet Wings", part of the group, showcased the Alpha-E drone at the international exhibition of housing and communal services and the construction complex, held November 11–14, 2025, in Moscow.
All of the company's drones are equipped with triple redundancy of control channels, and if necessary, interference-protected satellite navigation and optical systems.
The Alpha-E vertical takeoff and landing UAV is designed for aerial photography, aerial laser scanning, video monitoring, magnetic surveying, cargo delivery, fire patrol, and search and rescue operations. The Alpha-E is controlled from a mobile ground station at a distance of up to 120 km, can fly for an hour with a payload, and can ascend to a height of up to 3,000 m. The compactness of the UAV allows it to be transported in a passenger car, and assembly by one operator takes about 15 minutes.
Another promising development is the Legionnaire fixed-wing UAV, created for large volumes of aerial photography, laser scanning, monitoring of extended objects, and logistics tasks. It can be equipped with a gasoline or electric engine. The Legionnaire requires a site of only 10 × 10 m, the flight time with a load reaches 5 hours, the route is up to 550 km, and the carrying capacity is 4 kg. The declared resource is 2,800 flight hours or 5 years, and the maintenance interval is 100 hours.
Both UAVs can be equipped with gyro-stabilized optoelectronic systems, IR cameras, lidar, aerial laser scanners, and geodetic equipment.
