Cela vest:
Russia has ordered over 30 Tipchak UAV [PHOTO]s, with the first ones being delivered by the end of the year. Russia originally developed the Tipchak for use by artillery units. The Tipchak weighs 132 pounds, has a payload of 32 pounds and can stay in the air for two hours per sortie. The Tipchak can operate as high as 10,000 feet. The day/night cameras enable the operator to spot targets up to 40 kilometers away, and provide accurate location information for guns or rocket. A Tipchak unit contains six UAVs, a truck with the launcher and another with the flight control equipment. Each artillery brigade (with three or four gun or rocket battalions) would have a Tipchak unit attached.
