A new modification of the FPV drone "Knyaz Vandal Novgorodsky" with an increased strike range of up to 30 km is being delivered to the Russian Armed Forces. This was reported by a designer who participated in the development of the unmanned drone.
According to him, the most mass-produced version of the "Knyaz" remains the modification with a range of 23 km.
However, a new modification capable of reaching targets at a distance of 30 km has already started going to the troops.
According to him, this "Knyaz" has already undergone testing in combat conditions and proved its effectiveness.
The fiber-optic "Knyaz Vandal Novgorodsky" was developed by residents of the Ushkuynik Research and Production Center. Russian servicemen first used the FPV drone in the summer of 2024. After testing, these unmanned drones began to be supplied to the Russian Armed Forces.
