Russian military created a new FPV drone carrier based on "Molniya"
The modification was developed in the field laboratories of the 49th Army and is already in use
«Molniya-2»
After abandoning Starlink, "Molniya" drones became invulnerable to air defense for 20 seconds
The "Mask" function allows the drone to be hidden from radar, but for a limited time
Russian UAV control system "NSU 4.0 V2 lite" extended operating range to 45 km
During tests, the operator of "Molniya-2" covered a distance of 102 km with the new system
Invulnerable to air defense, "Molniya" drones switch to mesh modems without Starlink for the first time
The drone is no longer tied to a direct communication channel with the operator
Two under the wings, one interceptor under the fuselage, and another on top of the fuselage: "Molniya-2" learned to carry FPV drones
"BARS-Sarmat" tested three variants of drone carriers at once
"Molniya-2" Received New Combat Load: The Drone Was Equipped with a "Shmel" Charge
The aircraft-type UAV is already used in several configurations, including an FPV drone carrier variant
Molniya drones for the first time received evasion systems from interceptor drones
The complex increases the survivability of the aircraft in the air
The cheap "Molniya-2" was put on par with the "Lancet": here's how it wins
The drone features simpler operation, lower cost, and can carry up to 10 kg for 40 km
500 thousand per month: Production of Molniya drone propellers sharply increased in Siberia
KB "Spektr" increased production capabilities
A huge number of Molniya family drones with EW invulnerability transferred to the military
All units were provided with drones
"Molniya-2" now strikes with fragments: Russian drones received a deadly novelty
The ORG-1 munition enhances the drone's strike power without modifying the UAV itself
"Molniya-2" drones, invulnerable to electronic warfare, have received a new combat function
Now the attack UAV will hit the target itself even in case of complete loss of communication
Invulnerable to electronic warfare, the "Molniya-2" kamikaze drone learned to evade interceptors
UAV crews avoid ramming with sharp maneuvers
Invulnerable to EW, the "Molniya-2" UAV operated at 20 km: fortified positions destroyed without entering the engagement zone
The autonomy and jam-resistance of the aircraft-type drone allowed it to strike from a safe echelon
