The DJI Agras T30 multicopter was equipped with a 7.62 mm PKM machine gun and a Bullspike anti-tank grenade launcher. The weapons are installed on the drone using special, possibly controlled, suspended structures. This was reported by the Military portal with reference to data from OSINTtechnical.
The approximate weight of the installed payload is 19 kg, which is fully permitted by the technical characteristics of the drone.
Experts suggest that such a UAV will be used to support infantry operations or as a mobile aerial firing platform. However, it is possible that it could be used as a bomber, reconnaissance aircraft or repeater.
Let us remind you that a new jet-powered drone was recently tested in Ukraine. The UAV is designed according to the “Duck” aerodynamic design with a front horizontal tail, and a power plant of an unknown type, which is a jet engine, is located in the rear part. This drone requires a special take-off trolley, which drops off when gaining altitude and remains on the runway.
