National Guards aerial reconnaissance operators helped withdraw a resistance member from the enemy’s rear

Aerial reconnaissance operators of the National Guard of Ukraine helped withdraw a resistance member from the temporarily occupied territory.

The National Guard of Ukraine’s press service reported on this.

It is reported that aerial reconnaissance servicemen of the 11th Brigade of the National Guard of Ukraine conducted a rescue operation in the southern direction in cooperation with several brigades of the Territorial Defense Forces.

The evacuated man was carrying out a covered mission and identifying enemy positions.

Judging by the distinctive interface, the guardsmen adapted a Vampire bomber drone to perform the task, which received three lifebuoys instead of ammunition.

In August, Militarnyi reported that soldiers of the 13th “Khartiia” Operational Brigade of the National Guard of Ukraine found and helped a wounded Russian surrender using a drone.

The National Guard soldiers dropped water and a note with instructions to the invader, after which the Ukrainian drone pilot directed the Russian to our military.

The Charter soldiers shared food and water with the prisoner and provided him with specialized medical care.

Vampire

The Vampire copters can carry up to 15 kilograms of payload in the form of various types of ammunition for dropping.

The Ukrainian military uses these drones to destroy both armored vehicles and enemy defenses.

Each drone is equipped with a thermal imager, therefore, Vampire can effectively operate at night.

The Ukrainian company SkyFall manufactures the Vampire large attack hexacopter. The drone lifts payloads weighing up to 15 kilograms to a height of 400 meters.

This allows the use of the domestic UAV to drop various types of ammunition on the enemy, including thermobaric, cumulative, and high-explosive.

The drone is remotely controlled. Control is provided by radio frequencies and GPS.

The developers claim that if the signal is jammed, the drone will continue flying until the signal is restored. Some elements of the drone are manufactured using 3D printers.

Vampire specifications list:

• range – 10 km;
• communication range – 6 km;
• altitude – 400 m;
• speed – up to 40 – 80 km/h depending on the load;
• flight duration – 37 minutes without cargo and 20 minutes with 10 kg of weight.
