Russian intelligence will receive a drone launched from a "grenade launcher"

Launched from the shoulder a unique miniature aircraft TPK-7E is being developed in Russia. This reconnaissance drone will be transported in a container similar to a conventional hand grenade launcher.

After starting it automatically spreads composite wings. After that, for a long time it is able to conduct a survey of the terrain, developing in flight speed up to 200 km / h. Flight height - 5000 m.

Preparation time drone to work - from 10 seconds to 2 minutes. Everything is determined by the way of management. If automatic mode is selected, the drone autonomously follows a pre-set route. With manual control, the operator exercises control from a wearable control tablet.

The tablet will receive real-time video from a high-resolution camera installed on the UAV. When scouting at night, the operator can also receive a thermal image from an onboard night vision device with an uncooled matrix.
In addition to two cameras - television and thermal imaging - the winged reconnaissance can be equipped with many other payloads, including a compact radar with a target detection range of up to 5 km, a communication repeater, and a target designation system for external percussion vehicles.

It was reported that the device will acquire the ability to self-defeat targets, for which it will be armed with airborne ammunition.

A sample of this unmanned aerial vehicle was demonstrated at a number of exhibitions, including the Army-2017 international military-technical forum, RG-Sil reports.

Next in line is a drone launched from Kalash.
And in general ... Soon, because of these drones, they won’t be able to fight: everyone will know everything about each other.

From a grenade launcher (in size) up to 5 thousand versts? The author did not confuse anything?

siberalt but it doesn’t bother you:

small-sized radar with a range of target detection of up to 5 km

the device will acquire the ability to independently hit targets

With this approach, soon the army needs to be reduced, one scout will be enough!

[Sanichsan]

and what is wrong? it's an aircraft and not a rocket. the speed is less than that of a rocket but the engine is much more economical.

[Murderer]

It says flight altitude. This means that they do not shoot him at this height, but he can climb it, i.e. practical ceiling.

TPK is written only on the container - 5-100 It looks like development, then long gone !?

The war will begin as soon as the wives decide to acquire these drones

Thirty pieces at once, hello

And will he also land back in the grenade launcher?
It seems to me that here they are a little too sophisticated. Why go on the path of miniaturization, when the troops are not yet a single large and strike UAV. That it would be possible to work out for a couple of thousand kilometers, without relay stations.

The parachute will release and land.

And the option with a warhead to land on the head of the enemy, here is our approach to the barrage of ammunition.

Flight altitude - 5000 m.

Only now it is completely incomprehensible what to do such a baby at an altitude of 5 km. And what kind of radar is it that gets into a mini drone, I suspect it is passive, to detect enemy radars but no more.
I think the journalists, something all of this together misunderstood, is too unbelievable.

Now the main thing is that they should not be confused with RPGs, otherwise they’ll shy away, in a fever, with an unmanned aerial drone

Why would a Bethar scout shy away?

And sometimes they open the hunt

This is great !!! As many do not have it (Ukraine) - sweet- I have the honor.

[Vik66]

I understand that it will be disposable? Back into the pipe, with its wings folded like a bat, can it not dive?

[skomfit]

Looks like Winnie the Pooh is stuck in a hole Yes, in principle, it doesn’t matter how the most important thing is its efficiency, but it still looks ridiculous.

Most likely it will land on a parachute, and it’s already manually stuffed into the pipe.

It was reported that the device will acquire the ability to self-defeat targets, for which it will be armed with airborne ammunition.

So he is still able to hit targets.
