Based on racing drones, Israeli LANIUS barrage ammunition can hit targets in buildings and tunnels. Drive spoke in detail about the capabilities of the kamikaze drone from “nightmares”.

Developed by Israeli company Elbit Systems, the drone can be launched manually or from a multicopter that can carry several kamikaze drones. However, LANIUS is not designed to operate over long distances.

It is noted that the maximum speed and maneuverability of the drone, which was developed on the basis of racing models, is high. LANIUS is capable of developing speeds of up to 72 km/h and has a maximum take-off weight of 1.2 kg. The drone can stay in the air for seven minutes.

LANIUS can also communicate via Wi-Fi or radio, and the drone can go autonomous if needed, though Elbit emphasizes its ability to work with a human.

In addition, LANIUS is able to create three-dimensional maps of the terrain, and the core of the drone using artificial intelligence allows accurate classification of targets.
