"Not a forecast, but reality": Russia will make 5 million killer drones by April-engineer (video)

Russian manufacturers have learned to make FPV drones made of the cheapest materials, so they are quicker cheaper than Ukrainian models. In the first quarter of 2024, the Russians can produce 5 million FPV-ames, while in Ukraine they plan to produce 1 million for the whole year. The Russians have learned to collect from inexpensive materials Dron-Kamikadze, which are much cheaper than the simplest Ukrainian models.

That is why, according to the developer, the occupiers will be able to transfer millions of drones to the front very quickly. "Russia makes drones from all junk and garbage that cost 4 times cheaper than our cheapest. At the time when Ukraine plans to make 1 million for 2024, Russia will only make 5 million in the first quarter and it is not a forecast, but a real trend ", - Yuri Abdula wrote.

As an example, Yuri Abdula cited a Russian drone with a frame made, most likely, from laminated FSF-1 plywood, which can be bought in one of the construction hypermarkets in the form of letters. One of these FPV-non-Spots is the Russian copter "Megalodron", whose schematic image is Yuri Abdul and illustrated his post.

According to the KB70RU Telegram channel, a Russian developer of unmanned equipment, "Megalodron" can be a 9-inch quadcopter, a 10-inch quadcopter, a 9-inch octopter X8 or a 10-inch octopus X8. It is designed on the basis of a plywood frame, which consists of two parts, six vertical racks and a set of metric fastening. The cost of the plywood frame in the area of ​​250-280 rubles (from 105 to 118 UAH,-ed. ). During the megalodrone test tests, it was possible to raise a load of 8.

4 kg and fly with it. Moreover, the developers plan to equip the plywood drone with a fixed grid from the bottom to catch the Ukrainian hardy drone Vampire, nicknamed the occupants of "Baba Yaga". According to preliminary calculations of the creators, one copy "Megalodron" costs 60 thousand rubles (25 thousand 365 UAH, - ed. ). Work on Megalodron began on March 29, 2023, and on May 23 he made his first test flight.

In the second half of June, according to the manufacturer, Dron-Kamikadze with a plywood frame was first used in the war zone in Ukraine. We will remind, on December 28 we wrote that the intelligence of the Russian Federation received a party of night FPV-Drones "Hydrangea". The drone can be used not only for intelligence at any time of the day, but also for remote change and bombing with high accuracy.
