In Russia, a Bayraktar Turkish UAV was created: what is known about "Black Drozda" (video)

According to Arsen Gritskevich aircraft designer, "Black Drizd" can carry a useful load weighing up to 160 kilograms, fly up to 3000 meters in height and spend up to 8 hours in the sky. The drone has an engine with a capacity of 67 horsepower and a protected communication channel and an engine for 67 horses. It can fly and sit outside the aerodromes, for example, in the fields directly on the line of combat collision.

Arsen Gritskevich demonstrated a video on which "Black Drizd" stands on the runway. Outwardly, the UAV looks almost a full copy of the Bayraktar TB2 from the Turkish manufacturer Baykar Makina, which at the beginning of a full -scale war was very successfully used by Ukraine, only the airhole above the engine and the camera is located closer to the end of the nose. In addition to Black Drozda, the company also showed Dron-Kamikadze "Lynx" with a system of vertical takeoff and planting.

It is equipped with a fighting part of 10 kilograms, and if it does not find the target, it can land in a convenient for military place. In appearance, it is very reminiscent of V-Bat from American companies Northrop Grumman and Shield AI. The only noticeable difference is that the Russian model has two screws instead of one. The third UAV is "tornado" made according to the Kamov helicopter scheme. May carry anti -tank rockets "Cornet" or 20 kilograms of explosives to act in Kamikadze mode.

According to the developers, it is able to stay in the air for up to 45 minutes. Judging by the video, the company does not yet supply its UAV for the Russian army, but very much wants to be noticed. The designer says that the team is ready to transfer all its patents to the state to buy drones for the army. Earlier they wrote that in Russia they created a copy of the Ukrainian drones "Baba Yaga". It received unusual protection of the satellite navigation system from suppression.
