According to him, the UAV has increased speed and enhanced resistance to interception means.
The next version, "Skat-220", with increased speed and resistance to FPV-air defense, is already ready.
Preliminary data suggests that the "Skat-220" accelerates to 160 km/h due to a reduced wingspan of 2.2 meters and a reduced weight of 12 kg. For comparison, the basic version of the "Skat-350M" has a maximum speed in the range of 72–120 km/h.
For a reconnaissance drone, speed is a crucial characteristic, as FPV-air defense typically flies at speeds of 100–130 km/h.
