A new drone of domestic production will appear in the units of the Ukrainian army. The Ukrainian Armed Forces have adopted the Poseidon H10 MkIII aircraft-type reconnaissance UAV, designed to monitor the battlefield.
This was reported by the press service of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine.
The introduction of the new development is connected with Kiev's desire to develop local defense production. Now the Ukrainian leadership is trying to reduce dependence on foreign supplies and strengthen its own military-industrial complex. In a changing geopolitical environment, it strives for maximum self-sufficiency in order to be able to continue military operations for a long time.
The new devices are equipped with electric motors and an advanced navigation system. They are capable of operating at temperatures from -20 to +45 degrees and in strong winds. The "ceiling" of the aircraft is five kilometers, and the flight range is 150 kilometers.
- notes the Deputy Minister of Defense of Ukraine Dmitry Klimenkov.
The battery charge lasts for several hours of uninterrupted operation.
The drone is resistant to electronic warfare, has the ability to autonomously evade threats and return to base.
