The range of the newest Russian drone The Corsair, which will be presented for the first time at the Victory Parade on Red Square, will be doubled and will reach 250 kilometers, the press service of the Rostec state corporation reported.

Will fly twice as far. Rostec promises to increase the flight range of the new Corsair UAV




In the future, the complex ("Corsair") can be equipped with aircraft with improved performance and augmented functionality. In particular, it is planned to increase the range to 250 kilometers, as well as to equip the aircraft with electronic warfare systems and advanced reconnaissance tools.
- RIA "News»Message of state corporation.

The duration of the flight of the device is up to 10 hours, the maximum height of 6 kilometers, the radius of action is up to 160 km. Equipment "Corsair" allows real-time targeting fire equipment, including high-precision. Currently, the complex is preparing for mass production. Developed by the Rybinsk Luch Design Bureau, which is part of the Ruselectronics holding.

An important feature of the complex is its versatility, since, in addition to military use, it can also be used for solving civil tasks, such as environmental monitoring, control of roads and infrastructure, prevention of forest fires, search and rescue of people
- stated in Rostec.

    The corsair is good and really needed ... only where is Altair then? At the same time, we need these Corsairs, Katrans, Altairovs not tens, but hundreds. We are far behind not only the United States in the issue of UAVs, but also from Israel. And once they were leaders. And there is no information about the supersonic UAV yet, although the statement was about development.

      I agree. But imagine that pioneers in circles created a model designer with the current scientific and technical base? I think the intercontinental pespilot would not have to wait long. :)

        This fall, the Altius heavy attack UAV, which can be in the air for more than 30 hours and carry a combat load of 2 tons, will be adopted.

          These are only plans so far. I would like, but just as usual with us, it turns out-the bottom can not, but the top does not want. They slaughtered the ramp in due time, and who was punished for this? And now we are heroically catching up, as always.

          The UAV itself is not of particular value ... Dear Nexus, if there are thousands of them nothing will change ... The UAV should not send information to the operator’s console, but to the weapon control systems, immediately and in real time ... We do not have such systems , all control takes place in manual mode, which real-time target designation can be discussed ... Moreover, these systems change not only the nature of hostilities, but also the organizational structure of troops ... And this is a revolution, but it has not yet come to us. ... And it won’t come, we don’t have the concept of creation and development x systems ... So the quantity will not turn into quality ... For 20 years we have been marking time and the fault in this military leadership and, first of all, GS ...

            I wondered why people who are not able to pick up their bellies continue to serve in the army? From whom do we expect wise decisions? Look at what age Zhukov was and the Marshals of Victory when they defeated the Nazis ... belay Firstly, the current "commanders" at such an age that it is time to think about the eternal or delve into the beds. Secondly, the conduct of hostilities is not acceptable under the leadership of politicians ...

        And then our UAVs are being developed by young guys. I am sure we will be surprised and adversary. The main thing is that the funding is uninterrupted, and there will be a result.

          It’s just wonderful when young people give out innovative ideas to the mountain, but I’m not talking about this a bit, but about large-scale work with the younger generation at the level of schools and universities. In addition, tuition fees, for example in the rocket and rocket sector, are unbearable for children with extraordinary thinking. After all, not every family has the opportunity to pay 70k rubles for a half-year tuition, and so we partially lose the future Korolevs and Makeevs.

            You are partly right. But you know, many designers started in circles and in garages ... a question of human desire. Whatever they say, but our youth is right. Putin once said that the Petrel, Poseidon, and Vanguard were created by young guys. They just didn't get in the way.

              Under the existing economic model, non-profitable production will develop slowly, or not at all. And with the theft of budgetary funds, systematic cost overruns of subsidies, piece and manual execution, you can wait (whatever) for the Second Coming ... lol

        judging by how drones are being developed in Russia, it is those very pioneers who were thrown out of the circle of aircraft models beyond the smoke, who have already grown up and have forgotten everything, are trying to repeat their feat N years ago only not from plywood.

        but seriously, the situation was still a shame, the Kazakh demons have been flying for many years among Kazakhs, and ours are all waiting for the appearance of ready-made units for the "Russian raptor" in free sale,
        It seems to me alone that for a long time it was possible to assemble an air army of drones by ordering parts from the Chinese over the Internet?

        any mention of the test of any drones in Russia causes only one association: again, everything was stolen.

        ps news about UAVs in the Russian army should begin with a message about the transfer of hundreds of units of drones to warheads, everything else is nonsense and air shock, I can also experience home-made UAVs on the roof of the UAV, a Chinese drone + manipulator + prez with water = profit, wunderfaff created.

    The press does not often mention the development of drones flying on the Coanda effect. At the same time, such drones have unique abilities to hover over objects and have good vertical take-off indicators. With our new types of propulsion, the Coanda effect is especially active. It is interesting in Russia to consider such aircraft

      In Russia there are developed drones "based on the Coanda effect" .... for example, "EKIP". Only now they are .... nobody needs Nafik! In Russia ! Yes, and “abroad” the situation with “dislocations” can be described as the “sluggish current process” ... So far, there is not enough “little thing” .... a “small nut” to make a “rapid breakthrough” ....

        Sorry for importunity, but Ekip does not use a whirlwind flow around the entire surface of the body. That is, the Coanade effect creating a lifting force according to the Schauberger principle, when the lifting force is equivalent to the velocity of the air flow and determines the lifting force -no. Therefore, apparently this is not a suitable example.

          Perhaps ... I related to the information about the LA-effect of Coanda "superficially" ... "UFO myths" ... the projects of fascist Germany somehow turned away from an attentive attitude to such "devices" ... About Russian works in "this area "- there is a mention of I. Shestakov’s design .....

            I appreciate your information. Thank you. I spoke of such constructions. I believe that such a design has enormous potential. And the payload can be very significant. True management processes remain the same as those of foreign models.

    Here is the latest video from TASS. Do not pay attention to any explosions, these are all left frames. Pay attention to the other, it does not even "stand" firmly. Look at how his coward, how he still can not "close" the crosshair on the target. This is seen several times on the screens of monitors and in general terms. I see that this is still a completely raw device. Still messing with it and messing with it. Successes to developers. Happy Victory Day!

    The flight duration of the device is up to 10 hours, the maximum altitude is 6 kilometers, the range is up to 160 km. Corsair’s equipment allows real-time target designation of fire weapons, including high-precision ones.

    It’s time to carry even at least one ATGM Attack - 9M120, and learn how to use it in all weather conditions. And I don’t think where to apply the question, now we have "well-wishers" full!

    Andrew! Happy Victory Day!
    We can sometimes develop something that in reality "has no analogues." The question is different, and not only financing. That sometimes it doesn’t (and here I agree with Valery (okko077) that there is no system and most importantly there is no desire to create this system. For all this will possibly change the whole nature of the hostilities and the organizational structure of the troops. And we have not reached this point. We speak very, very much, promise, but do not.
    The picture from the T-50 speaks for itself. They promised adoption 5 years ago, and it’s good if the experimental party goes into the army this year. Not a series, but only an experimental batch ..
