DUBAI, November 16. /tass/. Orion unmanned aerial vehicles purchased by foreign customers will be able to operate using satellite communications using foreign spacecraft. This was announced to TASS by Sergey Bogatikov, CEO of Kronstadt JSC, at the Dubai Airshow 2021 International Airshow, which opened in the United Arab Emirates on November 14.

"Orion export and civilian UAVs can operate not only through Russian spacecraft, but also through foreign ones," he said.

Bogatikov said that in the coming years, the service area and possible use of unmanned aerial vehicles will expand due to the fact that additional spacecraft are planned to be deployed in a highly elliptical orbit in the Russian Federation, which will provide coverage of northern latitudes and circumpolar regions. "These communication channels will be in demand by the industry in the future, including developers of UAV complexes and other robotic solutions," he stressed.

Bogatikov noted that tests of the satellite communication system were carried out using the orbital frequency resource of several spacecraft of the Roscosmos system in geostationary orbit. "For the operation of the system, one device is selected, the most effective, taking into account the coverage of certain areas of interest. The work is simple: the onboard antenna on the unmanned aerial vehicle and the ground control point is directed at the satellite, and through it the board communicates with the "earth", transmitting control commands, telemetry and target information," he explained.

Earlier, Bogatikov told TASS that the Kronstadt company will equip Orion drones with a satellite communication system, which it will offer to other drone manufacturers as a component.

Dubai Airshow is one of the largest international aviation and space exhibitions and is held in the UAE once every two years. Russia has been participating in it since 1993.
