This unique airship can be used to provide information to forest workers, the Emergencies Ministry, the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Russian Armed Forces,” Mr. Kolesov said, adding that the unmanned airship can reach a height of up to one kilometer, carry a cargo weighing up to 10 kilograms, and spend three hours in the air.
It should be noted that the Dolgoprudny Automatics Design Bureau has presented unmanned airships before. In particular, the bureau conducted demonstration flights of the DP-27 Anyuta robotized disk-shaped airship in 2011.
