Ukrainian company Ukrspecsystems presented the unmanned aerial complex SHARK UAV, resistant to operation in EW conditions. The press service of Ukrspecsystems reports on the new UAV on its social networks.
The developers say that the idea to create this reconnaissance UAV arose after a full-scale invasion. Work on the complex from the project to the first flight took less than half a year. The SHARK has, among other things, secure encrypted communication and a camera with 30x optical zoom and additional digital zoom.
“The development of the new drone has already been carried out during the full-scale occupation of our company as an operational response to the challenges and needs of the Ukrainian army. This is another proof of the composure and resilience of the Ukrainian people, because in such difficult conditions we are able to create first-class high-tech products!”– said the company Ukrspetssystems.
According to the developers, today SHARK is completely ready for use in combat conditions. This UAV is designed specifically for penetrating temporarily controlled enemy territory: conducting deep air reconnaissance and tuning specifically the American HIMARS rocket artillery system, including Western long-range weapons.
SHARK is maximally optimized for the needs of modern warfare and the military, providing high-quality in-depth reconnaissance, tracking, fire adjustment and the ability to see the enemy in real time and correct their movements. In general, the UAV can monitor the battlefield and, taking into account the situation, manage the actions of the unit.
“The drone is equipped with an extremely reliable communication module and a modern camera system that allows you to get behind the enemy at a distance of up to 60 km and to conduct surveillance at a distance of up to 5 km from the UAV to the object. This is especially true when planning and conducting offensive operations and It is also important when predicting the actions of the enemy.”– developers reported.
The company also emphasized that a sufficient number of high-quality reconnaissance UAVs saved the lives of our military, allowing fighters to risk their lives less to gain valuable information behind enemy lines.
