The testing of the first batch of "Alligator" interceptor drones has begun. This was reported by the "Vector" design bureau.
The drone develops a speed of up to 270 kilometers per hour and is controlled from the remote control. It is capable of intercepting any strike and reconnaissance unmanned aerial vehicles.
The interceptor carries a VOG-25 payload (25th model fragmentation grenade launcher shot). At the same time, its weight is only 1.2 kg.
The model retains copter control, while achieving high speed of movement. The first batch of drones is currently being tested.
There are successful uses in shooting down "Baba Yaga".
