5. "Orlan-10"
Tactical remote-controlled reconnaissance UAV. It can carry out target designation, panoramic and planned photo and video filming of the area, be used with the electronic warfare system to suppress radio signals as part of the Leer-3 complex (cellular blocker within a radius of about 6 km). There is a variant of a complex for detecting and determining the location of radio emission sources in the VHF-UHF ranges, registering them for subsequent technical analysis and automatic classification. It is used as a communication repeater for the radio range and mobile communication and the Internet.
It can also be used by civil organizations for geodetic surveying, including in an autonomous mode outside of radio visibility, which is convenient for observing extended objects in hard-to-reach areas.
It is produced in the modifications "Orlan-10", "Orlan-10E" (export), "Orlan-10M" and other special modifications differing in target loads.
It can be part of complexes that include 2-4 UAVs, a ground control panel with built-in technical training aids, and a remote antenna.
UAV "Orlan-10" in the basic configuration is equipped with a camera and a gyro-stabilized television camera, and the modular load system allows you to quickly change attachments depending on the task.
Ground control post (NSC) allows you to simultaneously control 4 vehicles. Any of the devices can be used as a repeater for transmitting control signals to a remote UAV.
Wingspan - 3.1 m.
Takeoff weight - up to 20 kg.
Payload: up to 5 kg.
