Russians tried to mask the drone Supercam under the bird: it didn't help (video)

To spread: in Ukraine there was a Russian reconnaissance unmanned Supercam with a bird's image, probably applied for masking. The enemy drone with an unusual design was shot down by warriors of the anti-aircraft missile-artillery division of the 10th Separate Mountain Assault Brigade "Edelweiss", Ukrainian blogger and volunteer Sergey Sternenko in his Telegram-channel said.

In the published video, you can see how the Ukrainian anti-aircraft drone interceptor is approaching the Supercam reconnaissance UAV with a black bird silhouette on the body to strike. "A good attempt, but in vain. Thounese the 10th OGSBR" Edelweiss "knocked down this painted supercam," Sternenko wrote. The Russian drone SuperCam is designed for observation and intelligence. He is able to fly up to 100 km in order to bring a long-range Russian weapon, including Tornado-C RSSL and Iscander missile.

Supercam S350 can set up to three useful loads at a time, including photo and camcorders, thermal imagers, laser scanning systems, radiation background meters and gas analyzers. UAVs are also capable of flying during moderate rain or snowfall. The deployment of the unmanned complex takes 15 minutes. It takes off from elastic catapult and land with a parachute. The drone works in automatic or semi -automatic mode and is driven by an electric motor.
