Drone Industry

A pilot of a STING interceptor drone from the Zeus crew of the 1021st Anti-Aircraft Missile Regiment raised the UAV to an altitude of 9,000 metres while intercepting an enemy target.

As Censor.NET reports, due to the technical specifics of the interception, the target could not be hit, but the drone was successfully returned to the launch site.

The soldiers noted that 9,000 metres is an altitude at which passenger aircraft flew in peacetime. Now drone operators send their UAVs to such heights to intercept Russian aerial targets.

The video was shared on social media by the Wild Hornets.
