A new Ukrainian "bird" will keep an eye on the enemy

The Ministry of Defence has codified and adopted the domestically produced Poseidon UAV system for deployment within the units of the Defence Forces. This was reported by the MoD’s Main Directorate for Support of the Life Cycle of Weapons and Military Equipment. 

“This system is designed to perform a variety of specific missions. The system's aerial vehicles are equipped with electric engines and advanced navigation technology. It operates effectively in temperatures ranging from -20 °C to +45 °C, including during strong winds. The battery charge lasts for several hours of continuous operation. The operational altitude of these drones exceeds the reach of many enemy air defense systems,” said Deputy Minister of Defence of Ukraine, Dmytro Klimenkov.
