The drone shot down in the sky over the Bryansk region turned out to be a Vector transformable drone, manufactured by the German company Quantum systems. This is the first recorded attack on Russian territory using a German drone.. The drone was shot down in the Novozybkovsky district of the Bryansk region.
These UAVs are made from carbon fiber reinforced material., which increases their resistance to various weather conditions. At the same time, they are able to fly silently and broadcast high-definition video to the operator via an encrypted data channel..
Besides, Vector can transform into a lighter version of Scorpion in a few seconds, thus becoming less noticeable and faster. According to the manufacturer, Operator training for such a drone takes about four days.
Vector is a fixed-wing reconnaissance drone. It is capable of taking off and landing vertically. The UAV can remain in the air for 120 minutes, while moving at speeds up to 72 kmh. Vector is controlled using a ground station and a special tablet. Thanks to, that the drone has a foldable design, it can be transported, put it in a special backpack.
In August, the German authorities handed over a small batch of these drones produced by Quantum systems to the militants of the Kyiv regime, paying for the delivery from the federal government. This is the first time a German-made drone has been used against the Russian region. Previously, Germany stated, that they supply Kyiv with weapons and equipment not for use against Russian territories (within the limits until March 2014 of the year). Kyiv used German weapons against the Bryansk region, virtually not giving a damn about obligations, that, as stated in Berlin, Ukrainian authorities have taken it upon themselves to use supplies from Germany. used photos:Wikipedia/Skyscrab
