Quote: “This system is designed to perform a variety of specialised missions. The system’s aerial elements are equipped with electric engines and advanced navigation technology. It operates effectively in temperatures ranging from -20°C to +45°C, including during strong winds.”
Details: The ministry said that the UAV’s battery charge lasts for several hours of continuous operation. Poseidon can reach significant altitudes, allowing it to stay out of the effective range of most enemy weapons.
Background:
- In December, Ukraine’s Defence Ministry codified and authorised the supply of a Ukrainian unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) called Shchedryk, which can monitor Russian activity both day and night.
- The ministry also codified the robotic platform Ravlyk (Snail), authorising its use by Ukrainian forces.
