The Brave1 Defense Cluster has announced the successful testing of a new generation of bomber drones, showcasing enhanced capabilities and secure operational features. These advancements include improved flight range, payload capacity, and communication security, allowing for control from safe positions.
The testing involved products from 18 manufacturers and focused on two distinct types of drones:
- Small Bombers – Designed to carry several kilograms of payload, these drones are intended for targeting infantry, mine installations, and light logistical support.
- Heavy Bombers – Capable of carrying tens of kilograms, these drones are utilized for logistics, targeting heavy equipment, and fortifications.
During the tests, each drone was required to cover a distance of 20 kilometers while under radio jamming conditions, successfully hitting a target and returning to base. Following the trials, some of the tested models were deemed ready for operation in challenging environments.
The next phase will involve evaluations in combat positions and scaling the most effective solutions for real-world applications.
