Russia tests Svarog interceptor drone; AO "TSARS" unveils Delta‑T‑M high‑speed drone
Russia began combat testing of the AI‑assisted Svarog interceptor drone, while the Center for Autonomous Robotic Systems introduced the Delta‑T‑M drone for industrial safety monitoring.
Russia began testing a new Svarog pro AI‑assisted interceptor drone in combat, according to TASS. The Svarog drone is designed to engage fixed‑wing UAVs, is hand‑launched, operates jointly with a ground‑based control station, and enables an operator to strike targets at a distance of up to 17 km, TASS reported.
The Center for Autonomous Robotic Systems (AO "TSARS") unveiled a high‑speed drone named Delta‑T‑M, according to www1.ru. The drone is intended for monitoring and ensuring the safety of industrial facilities and is already in serial production, the outlet added.
Delta‑T‑M is equipped with a domestic turbojet engine, is launched from a catapult, and returns using a parachute system, www1.ru said. It can reach speeds of up to 400 km/h and can arrive at a critical point in minutes, providing clear images in visible and thermal ranges day and night, the source reported. The drone carries a thermal imager described as "highly sensitive", an optical camera, and an automatic target tracking system, www1.ru noted.
