In Russia, the Military drone "Eleron-7" was modified: whether it became more dangerous for the Armed Forces

The Russian drone has received new equipment that will allow you to see better and stay in the air during military operations. The Russians have improved their Eleron-7 scout, which is used on the front in Ukraine: the drone was equipped with a thermal imaging chamber and a new electric motor. This was reported by a representative of the enterprise-developer of JSC "Enix" (Kazan) Sergey Vaskov in a comment to RIA "Novosti" on Tuesday, October 17.

According to him, the company decided to modify the drone at the request of the Russian soldiers, who are now fighting in the territory of Ukraine. During their work, engineers took into account the experience of the occupation troops obtained during the fighting. "We modernize our most popular reconnaissance drone" Eleron-7. " The developer also added that Russian engineers have increased the duration of drone from three to four hours, installing more sophisticated electric motors.

In addition, the control channels and transmission of Eleron-7 videos have been processed-now they are allegedly better protected from radio-electronic obstacles. According to Enix on the official website, the Eleron-7 complex is designed for exploration and search for enemy equipment at a considerable distance, using a gyrostabilized and non-hyrosstabilized equipment.

For this purpose, the drone is equipped with a camera, a video camera with a 30-fold magnification in a gyrostabilized mechanism (television module) with continuous rotation of azimuth and a thermal imaging, combined with low-level colored and black and white. The new version will receive a higher resolution thermal imaging chamber, which, in theory, will help Russian operators to better notice Ukrainian objects on Earth. The unmanned complex is able to work offline on a pre -laid route.

It runs from the catapult, land on a parachute. We will remind, in mid -August we wrote that the Russian drone "Sirius" first climbed into the sky. The shock drone can lift at a height of 7 kilometers and carry corki and fugas airbags weighing up to 450 kilograms. And in early August, it became known that engineers of the Russian manufacturer "Enix" were developed for the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation dozens of drones.
