In Russia, a drone was created for the study of polluted areas. Modular UAV will be able to analyze radioactive and chemical pollution, which will allow it to use it for atomic war. The Military Academy of Rocket Forces of the Strategic Administration named after Peter Great Patiented its development, TASS reports.
The patent describes the UAV with a vertical takeoff and landing. Its ability to sit on a solid surface and water. The design of the drone provides for the protection of traction screws, which will allow to use it in difficult conditions.
The basis of the UAV lies the carrier frame, on the central axis of which two hermetic modules with engines are fixed. This design is bonded with a carrier frame, forming an aerodynamic profile. Top and bottom of the UGL installed protective grids that exclude damage to the carrier screws. The frame and frame for saving mass will be made of high strength plastic.
Under the protection of the mesh is a sealed hardware module with a navigation system, and a complex of collecting and analyzing information. This allows the use of UAV in forests, small rooms and mountains where there is a collision risk.
UAV will be able to take on board to the six hundred grams of cargo, which allows you to install various equipment for monitoring radioactive and chemical pollution, varying the set of sensors based on the conditions. Dron will be able to determine the coordinates of the emissions of harmful substances and analyze the destruction of affected objects. In turn, the optical sensors will ensure search for missing people at any time of the day, and in complex meteors.
It is worth noting that there are already CAPPs designed to work with pollution. So, in February, ASG introduced the drone Argus Elite. Vertical take-off and landing UAH received a set of sensors to work with pollution, including sensors of the concentration of explosive connections, and a photoionization detector.
