Flashback

Vector is a reconnaissance UAV with a fixed wing. Such a drone can take off and land vertically. It has a low-noise engine and encrypted IP communication that transmits a video stream. The drone has a flight time of up to 120 minutes. It can fly at speeds of up to 72 kilometres per hour.

Ukraine has been operating the Vector UAV since the beginning of the full-scale war with Russia. By the way, the drone has received several upgrades since then. For example, it was equipped with a sensor with AI, as well as a special antenna for better communication.
