The Russian unmanned reconnaissance and attack helicopter Termit launched guided missiles in flight. The target range was six kilometers.
"The S-8L aviation missiles proposed by the concern will indeed be included in the armament complex of this helicopter. The first tests with the use of these munitions have already been carried out as part of the initiative work," Sergei Bogatikov, CEO of Kronstadt, told RIA Novosti.
Recall that the Termit drone, first presented at the Army-2021 forum, is equipped with software algorithms with elements of artificial intelligence. The neural network allows the drone to engage in "free hunting". The operator only "captures" the target and puts it on escort, then the drone acts independently.
The device is capable of carrying three aircraft-guided missiles S-8L caliber 80 mm. The missile has a laser semi-active homing head, and the firing range is up to six kilometers.
