In Russia, began testing the most silent combat quadcopter

19
Tests of the latest combat quadrocopter from developers have started in Russia drone "Orlan". This was announced by the chief designer of the "Special Technology Center" (STC) Roman Ivanov.

Confirmed the effectiveness of this technique, the feasibility and its high technical characteristics
- said Ivanov on the TV channel "Star".



In Russia, began testing the most silent combat quadcopter


The designer noted that the new quadrocopter impressed the US representatives with its characteristics.

We see that there are also American reports, where we are surprised and amazed at the quality and quality that we demonstrate.
- told Ivanov.

He also said that a new motor and a propeller had been created for the drone, which allows it to do its work virtually silently.

Currently, the STC produces 11 various modifications of the drone "Orlan", which is in service with the Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation. The device is intended for conducting aerial optical-electronic and radio intelligence, data transmission to combat units. Also, the drone is able to block GSM cellular communication and distort GPS navigation.

    And what, we first show the mattresses and report on the work done, at the test stage? laughing

        Well motor okay. You can make silent (for example, a shaft on a magnetic suspension instead of bearings, or on an oil suspension, as in powerful steam turbines). And not so much the electric motor is noisy even on ordinary plain bearings.
        But how did they make the blades silent? It is a pity there is no photo of the shape of the blades. Very interesting.
        good

          so this is the secret. Have you noticed that when they show the launch of a boat, their propellers are closed? all about this

          And what is the noise from the copter? This is not a helicopter. Its extremely low noise merges with the natural noise background of the area. I have a copter for personal use, of course not combat, but it’s suitable for reconnaissance, the elevation is up to 200 meters, the camera resolution is quite acceptable for a smartphone or tablet.

          When will this parade of stupidity and arrogance stop? A military UAV has the main characteristics - the radius of real-time information exchange, the quality and resolution of the transmitted image for real-time decision-making, the accuracy of determining enemy coordinates and the situation .... security and resistance to external influences of information and control channels ... . We are in these matters at the level of the 1st grade of the school .... And in matters of the level of integration and the creation of information systems the full "0" .... It would be better if these ..... "storytellers" were silent ....

            Dear, you confuse the solid with the long.
            This is not about electronics, but about the carrier. Housing, engine, screws. And that means noiselessness, range, time spent in flight.

              And why all this if the main thing is not? But is he not? And it is not expected !!! "Brains" can be put on a wooden toy and it will work and bring benefits, and a high-tech base without brains is worse than a piece of wood !!! We have with ALL conventional weapons like that! Do you understand this?

                All the same, the hope does not leave me that in the future, in the near future, and in this matter, a breakthrough will appear.

                  There will be no breakthrough ... The system, which should have had such capabilities, began to be developed in 2000, and it is called the ESU TK "Constellation-M" ... The incorrect concept of its creation is related to the misunderstanding by the military leadership of the tasks and the purpose of network-centric systems with an informational orientation, it led to the fact that the system is not operational, and in the command and control channels of the troops .... But it has been adopted, although it does not work, and it is hidden ..... Hundreds of billions of rubles have been spent, or rather, buried in sand .... Dates end in 2020 ... Who will answer? And the chief of the General Staff took the system .... The same picture from the Andromeda-D automated control system. Everyone is silent, it's time to start the dismantling with landing and dismissals .... What was our money spent on? And most importantly, these degenerates with big stars did not understand anything .....

          The propeller cannot be silent because, due to the design, there are high and low pressure zones. It is impossible to make transition sections of planes with this fundamental concept such that the hydro-gas-dynamic flow does not experience such transformations from low pressure and higher flow velocity to lower velocity and corresponding pressure. Therefore, propellers and propellers suffer a drop in pressure and naturally a failure of traction. Acoustic noise is the result of cavitation of air containing aggregate water in the form of aging air. Therefore, I, as the author of a device in which there are no such processes of pressure drop and flow discontinuity, can precisely justify why it cannot be done. Screws, impellers, turbines are silent and economical.

        Duc they also intelligence works

        And what to investigate, we will show and tell ourselves.

        Duke Robotics stabilization propeller shaft. Six gun platform manipulators move to compensate for recoil.
        In the United States, a new type of killer drone - TIKAD.
        In this area, we need to explore, buy and use the information received. Maybe there will not be such a huge lag in this area. hi

          As usual, we are far and difficult and everything is close. For years, we have been promoting the development of new methods for analyzing turbulent processes in a hydrodynamic environment and a fundamentally new device for the quality of the process, which simply revolutionizes the knowledge of the laws and methods of converting the kinetic eneogy of a stream and allows you to use the potential energy of this stream. In simple terms, it’s just a completely new mover with incredibly great potential and research and already application.

    At least something to know about its characteristics: weight, carrying capacity,
    ceiling, etc. If not a secret, of course ...
