The Ural Civil Aviation Plant (UZGA) has significantly modernized the export version of the Forpost-RE reconnaissance drone. The company's press service spoke about the main improvements to the complex.
Engineers changed the design of the wing and tail. They chose to switch to an all-composite power caisson, abandoning the metal frame. This reduced the number of joints and fasteners.
The new wing with a larger wingspan has improved aerodynamic characteristics. As a result of the modernization, the payload mass that the UAV can carry has increased.
Also, through the use of new technological processes, the designers managed to reduce the complexity of manufacturing the export version.
Forpost-RE Characteristics:
- Maximum take-off weight — about 500 kg
- Payload — up to 120 kg
- Flight duration — up to 18 hours
- Maximum flight altitude — up to 6000 meters
- Maximum speed — up to 180-200 km/h
Guided and unguided aerial bombs and missiles weighing up to 40 kg are used as aviation weapons. The device is capable of performing missions in a wide range of climatic geographical conditions.
