Dron with a coil: Russia is preparing a multi -purpose drone on a fiber (video)

To extend: Novgorod Scientific and Production Center "Ushuynik" created an unmanned drone on fiber-optic management, whose combat tests are scheduled for September. Currently, the Black Sea Fleet of the Russian Federation is conducting polygonal tests of the latest unmanned boat, writes Russian TASS agency. The product, as noted, has a coil with a protected fiber optic cable. On the water, the heavy cable sinks immediately, lying to the bottom, so that the coil is unwound.

"This coil can be large and even reinforced," said Alexei Chadayev, the head of the NSC "Ushuynik". According to him, the product can be used as a kamikadze, as well as as a aircraft carrier for flying drones. In addition, it is expected that the boat will be able to work as a counteraction to Ukrainian non -traffic boats. To do this, plan to place FPV-punks on radio.

Currently, the characteristics of the device are unknown, but the range, as assumed by journalists of the "Militar", should not exceed 100 kilometers, which limits the use of such drone predominantly coastal areas. In addition, in the published frames it is noticeable that the device is small, made quite roughly, with a noticeable displacement of the center of mass back.

We will remind, the head of Ukrainian intelligence Kirill Budanov said that the Russians worked on surface drones for more than 1. 5 years and were able to create several models. In particular, according to him, the Russians have already used a new Drone "Zephir" in the battle.
