Will break the invaders where they are not waiting: Ukrainian drone Postman is preparing for combat departments

Recently modernized engineers, the drone has increased the flight range to 115 km and can now arrange bombing in the deep rear of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. The Ukrainian Postman Air Forman tested in conditions close to combat, and he showed good results. A month later, the drone is planned to be used in real battles, the developer Sergey Naumovich reported about it in his Telegram channel on Tuesday, October 19.

According to him, during a test flight at the landfill, the unmanned aircraft flew 115 km, without even spending the entire battery charge (10%left). "This means that we can confidently say that in combat conditions it is possible to count on an operational radius of about 55 km. That is, if to the front line is 10 km, it flies to a depth of the occupiers for about 45 km. And make the reset of very loud" gifts "The occupiers weighing 6-8 kg," the developer explained.

He stressed that the value of Postman is now determined by the radius of work, because at such distances, which he covers, Ukrainian barrel artillery can no longer strike on the enemy. This result was achieved by the modernization of the aircraft settings, which ultimately gave good performance in terms of energy efficiency. This applies to the engine, battery and propellers.

Moreover, the aircraft had already performed combat departments during which the zone of influence of the enemy's HPs was successfully "passed". "We will be able to perform combat missions with our crew on our own, I think, at the end of January or early February.

Yes, it is not as entertained as FPV-Drones, but believe me: to fly 45 km deep into the temporarily occupied territory from the line of combat collision-this is real cool! There will be very "delicious" goals where "arrivals" from the Armed Forces do not expect, - said Sergey Naumovich.

According to Sergiy Naumovich, POSTMA UAV is not a new development, the drone has long been working on the front and arranges the bombing of Russian invaders, delivers useful cargo to Ukrainian guerrillas in the Russian Federation and in the temporarily occupied territory of Ukraine. People from NGO "Air Intelligence" have worked on the drone for almost a year, so it is not a "pirate" version of UAV.

Thanks to the modernization and implementation of modern electronic modules, working at non -standard frequencies, Postman has high resistance to HR. In early November, the developers modeled a new mission for Postman. It is that the aircraft type drops from Orikhov, makes the ammunition in the vicinity of Tokmak and returns. "Our UAV Postman will easily be able to make such a mission in combat conditions. Even with the stock.

It is likely that we will fulfill such a mission in the future in reality," Naumovich said. We will remind, on December 19 it became known that in Ukraine will be made by German drones VECTOR. The availability of a base in Ukraine will allow engineers to improve the already useful drones and faster to supply them to the Ukrainian army. We also wrote that the Armed Forces "taught" drones to hunt the occupiers from the ambush.
