Judging by the published images, this UAV looks much like the original aircraft, it has the same characteristic external difference from most other modern aircraft-the wings have a reverse sweep.
The AR-10 will have an internal fuselage compartment, which can accommodate various samples of modern high-precision weapons.
It is noted that the maximum length of the drone will be 9.7 meters, wingspan-8.4 meters, height-5.4 meters.
Maximum take - off weight-3850 kg, landing weight-2430 kg, equipment weight - 680 kg.
The maximum speed at an altitude of 6 km will reach 910 km / h, cruising-800 km / h. The practical ceiling is 11,500 meters.
The declared range with outboard fuel tanks is 2100 km. The maximum range is 950 km. The flight duration is 6 hours.
Recall that the SR-10 aircraft made its first flight in 2015 and is quite highly regarded by aviation experts.
In Russia, several types of military UAVs are currently being created, for example, the Orion ,an export version of which was demonstrated at the IDEX 2021 exhibition in Abu Dhabi. Tests of the Hunter attack drones are also continuing.
