The Ukrainian company PG Robotics has upgraded and launched serial production of the Lucky Strike-1.5 bomber drone<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As Defender Media learned from the manufacturer, the drone has received more powerful motors, an upgraded power supply system and an increased payload capacity of up to 4 kg. At the same time, the manufacturer has retained the control system of the previous version and compatibility with its ground station.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The increased payload capacity has expanded the range of tasks the drone can perform. The configurations stated by the manufacturer include light logistics, infantry support, fire strikes, remote mining, operation with relay equipment, destruction of drones waiting for targets, as well as searching for and evacuating drones from the battlefield. The upgraded version also supports the use of a four-barrelled shotgun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For remote mining, the Lucky Strike-1.5 can be equipped with three hardpoints. The platform supports a drum-type release system for six mines or for three aluminium cassette modules, each containing three mines. The nine-mine configuration uses the drone’s maximum payload capacity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
