Ukrainian-Czech company UAC has unveiled a new unmanned aerial vehicle. It is called Leleka LR (Long Range).

Here's What We Know

The new drone is based on the Leleka-100 reconnaissance drone of the Ukrainian company Deviro. Production is set up in the Czech Republic, and the Operator Training Centre will remain in Ukraine. In addition, testing and servicing will take place in Ukraine.

Leleka LR is also a reconnaissance-level drone, just like Leleka-100. It can climb to a height of up to 2000 metres and stay in the air for 4 hours. It has a range of 90 kilometres. The UAV is capable of a speed of 32 metres per second with a cruising speed of 22 metres per second.
