The sea drone will be equipped with automatic piloting system, cameras, communication modules and warhead weighing up to 200 kg, so it will be able not only to attack enemy targets, but also conduct reconnaissance. It has a range of 400 km, a range of 800 km and a top speed of 80 km/h. The cost of one drone is ₴10 million or about $270,000.
