Multifunction aerial robotics complex rises to a height of several thousand meters, corrects the fire of the artillery and destroying armoured vehicles with rocket weapons, said defense industry.
Developed by the United instrument Corporation (OPK, is rostec) shock flying robot quadcopter with grenade launcher module is able to detect and destroy enemy armored vehicles, including tanks, said on Wednesday the press service of the defense industry.
The exhibition, which takes place on the territory located in Kubinka the Military and Patriotic Park of recreation and culture of the armed forces “Patriot” in the framework of the military-scientific conference “the Robotization of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, defense industry presented a draft air multifunctional robotic complex, which includes the robot-helicopter, copter-the observer, the UAV reconnaissance and strike quadcopter with grenade launcher module.
“Copter-the observer adjusts the fire of artillery and determines the location coordinates signals of satellite navigation systems GLONASS/GPS. Shock quadcopter is able to detect and destroy enemy targets, including tanks and armored vehicles, using a standard reactive weapons”, reports the defence industry.
The robot helicopter is intended for surveillance, payload delivery to a specified point of reference of meteorological observations”. The range of a few hundred kilometers. Copter reconnaissance rises to a height of several thousand meters and is used for detection and recognition of targets in real-time.”
“Machines capable of solving a wide range of tasks and can operate both independently and as part of a single group. The number of products included in the complex, first presented at the exhibition “the Robotization of the armed forces”, — said the press service.
As noted by the Deputy Director General of uimc Sergei Skokov, the technique was developed by Kontsern sistemprom, “is designed to effectively replace humans wherever possible”.
“It is able to implement exploration and monitoring, patrolling closed and open objects, freight transportation, mapping, and executing combat missions. Now the human role in the management of robots is minimized: a squad of drones is able to operate in standalone mode, when each machine independently and performs its function clearly follows a given route,” said Skokov.
According to him, “such robots will be able, without operator intervention, to navigate in space, to choose the route, to explore, to interact with the drones and other robotic systems”.
OPK — the Russian state Corporation established in 2014 in the “Rostec” to organize high-tech production of competitive products in the field of systems and means of communication, automated control systems, electronic warfare and robotic systems for the armed forces and other special groups, as well as competitive products for civilian and dual-purpose.
