The Ukrainian Ministry of Defense has formally sanctioned and adopted the "Vykhor" FPV system, which consists of various drone sizes, for deployment within the Defense Forces.
The press service of the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine reported that.
The "Vykhor" drones are known for their high speed, enabling them to efficiently chase and take down enemy armored vehicles or cars, even in motion.
They are also capable of striking enemy human resources in trenches and dugouts.
Moreover, the manufacturers have accounted for the option of outfitting the drones with extra gear to carry out a broader spectrum of duties, effectively making them versatile resources on the front lines.
To control the "Vykhor" FPV complex, the pilot uses:
- A special remote control,
- FPV goggles
- are equipment for receiving and transmitting signals.
It's worth mentioning that the Ministry of Strategic Industries of Ukraine organized an event at one of the training grounds, where eight domestic drone manufacturers showcased the first Ukrainian drones for reconnaissance and fire control. These drones are counterparts of the well-known Chinese drone, Mavic.
The capital recently hosted the second master class for specialists in unmanned marine systems. At the event, attendees observed modern unmanned aerial complexes in action, which are currently being utilized on the battlefield.
In October 2024, Ukrainian military drones hit more than 52 thousand enemy targets, demonstrating a high level of effectiveness.
For reference:
As reported, the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine received the first patent for a unique technology for detecting enemy FPV drones called "Vitriak M."
Furthermore, the Ministry of Defense has officially authorized troops to use the "Tavria" combat module. The module includes a remote-controlled turret with two machine guns, one of which is a high-caliber weapon.
Recently, the Ministry of Defense codified and approved the supply of the buggy "Varan," a Ukrainian all-terrain vehicle designed for extremely difficult operating conditions.
