On the ability of the newest shock UGS "Thunder" to manage ROOM, consisting of other drone, with reference to the source in the defense and industrial complex writes TASS. According to him, one such device will be able to control ten shock UAVs "Lightning", launched from another aviation media. There is no official confirmation of information.
For the first time, the Thunder was presented at the "Army 2020" exhibition. It is assumed that the device can be used in a bundle with the fighter-generation SU-57 fighter, as well as fighters of the fourth generation. The use of such an ultrapure will reduce the risk for pilot flyers.
According to the concept, the devices must fly ahead of the aircraft group, at a distance of about 200 kilometers from them, provoking the enemy to open fire on the UAV and demask their position.
According to the company "Kronstadt" - the developer of the aircraft, "Thunder" will receive four suspension points, of which two will be under the consoles of the wings, and two more - inside the fuselage of the CAP. The device will have a take-off mass of seven tons and will be able to deliver a payload weighing 1.3 tons to a range of about 800 kilometers. Craising speed of UAV is 800 kilometers per hour. Practical ceiling - 12 thousand meters.

"Thunder" will be able to use a wide range of various weapons. Among them, in particular, the new air-surface rockets, as well as the bomb-250 bomb-500.
Recently, there are great efforts to develop new drums. Not so long ago, the network was posted on the network of combat use in the territory of Syria of the new impact drone "Orion". To familiarize yourself with its capabilities, as well as see how this device looks against the background of other foreign CAPPs, you can in our recent material.

The first (and today is the only one) prototype "Hunter" made the starting flight in 2019, proceed with the operation of the CAPP intend to go after 2021. According to some data, it can be applied as a fighter.
