A Ukrainian-made combat drone was presented in Kiev. Developers say that there are no analogues in the world

Former head of the State Space Agency Vladimir Usov, who, together with a group of 25 people, worked on the creation of the drone, reportedthat thanks to the stealth technology, as well as the shape of the flat wing of the UAV, it is virtually invisible to radars and is difficult to calculate. The drone’s speed is close to supersonic (1000 km / h).

According to LIGA.net, the UAV can carry weapons weighing up to a ton in its internal compartments and has “swarm capabilities.” Its length is 8 m, width is 11 m, maximum take-off weight is 7.5 tons.

Portal “Military”, referring to the data of the developers, writes that the maximum flight altitude of the Ace One will be 13.7 km, the operational radius – 1.5 thousand km.
