It is planned to use various types of aerial unmanned aerial vehicles to protect the maritime borders of Russia. The new technology provides for the combined use of reconnaissance drones and barrage ammunition.

"It is planned that kamikaze drones will launch to the target both from coastal launchers on a car chassis and from launchers on fleet ships," RIA Novosti reports.

Boats and other small vessels will be able to act as carriers of kamikaze attack drones. The developed elements of the system have already passed preliminary tests. Barrage ammunition can patrol a given security area for a long time in the target search mode. When a vessel is detected, the drone strikes it as an air-to-surface guided missile.

The relatively cheap cost of barrage ammunition compared to anti-ship missiles will allow the use of flocks of drones to attack a frigate or destroyer. A swarm of not expensive drones will "blind" the intruder ship, disabling its surveillance, control and weapons systems.

It should be noted that in 2016, Russian engineers developed a robotic sea-based complex that can work offline for several days at a distance of more than 100 kilometers from the coast. The robot can patrol the water area along a pre-laid route, as well as independently communicate with underwater and surface ships, and with coastal posts. With the help of radar, the patrol officer will be able to independently track targets and transmit all information about them to the data processing center.
