Dnepr Group of Forces develops Perun unique strike-transport drone

17.06.24 - The newest UAV operates using Russian software. It is capable of quickly delivering heavy cargoes weighing up to 200 kg, performing reconnaissance actions, conducting search and rescue missions, including evacuating wounded military personnel, and dropping paratroopers into the rear of the enemy.

The development was first of all brought to the attention of the rear, which supplied soldiers with everything they need on the front line. At one time, the Perun UAV is capable of delivering the volume of food that previously required at least 13 FPV drone sorties.

The drone's combat capabilities have already been tested at the training ground. Servicemen equipped the Perun UAV with an ATGM system with a guided missile and launched attacks from the ground and in the air. The missile is adjusted not on the machine itself, but by a remote control system.

In further tests, the Perun UAV will be equipped with a machine gun and an unguided air-to-surface missile system. Source 🔹 Russian Defence Ministry
