Ukrainian defence tech company Deviro has tested a remote-control feature for its UAVs. It is already available to crews that wish to use it, marketing director Roman disclosed in an interview with Defender Media.

Thanks to a stable internet connection, operators can control drones from any location in Ukraine. The technology works with both the Leleka reconnaissance drone and Bulava, the company’s mid-strike. It was first announced in April.

A field team is required on site for UAV launch, which mostly takes place 15-20 km from the front line. Field personnel connect the communications station to the internet, launch the drone and move to a safe location.

The primary tasks of Leleka operators are to locate enemy groups, their positions and logistics routes. In particular, operators focus on enemy pilots. Bulava’s strike targets include logistics assets, strike systems such as artillery pieces or MLRS, radar systems and more.

How Deviro’s products have evolved, what new features they have received and what the military says about the drones – read in the full piece on the company:
