A project for a new hybrid unmanned complex has been presented, combining a ground tracked or wheeled platform and a detachable aerial module. The system is conceived as a single architecture in which the mobile base and the aerial drone work in conjunction and complement each other in observation and transportation tasks.

The ground part acts as a payload carrier and serves as a mobile platform for delivering the complex to the working area. It also provides a base point for the aerial module, allowing it to be launched directly from the surface.

The aerial component is equipped with a video camera and a thermal imager, which expands observation capabilities in various conditions, including nighttime and limited visibility. The drone can detach from the base, perform tasks in the air, and then return for re-docking.

However, the project is still under development: information about the specific characteristics of the system, as well as data about the developer, have not yet been disclosed.
