After the hexacopter Babayaga, an extremely heavy bomber drone capable of carrying a 12-kilogram load over a distance of about ten kilometers, the Ukrainian team at Armadrone has introduced the REX. This drone, modeled with wings similar to an airplane (unlike the Babayaga), is the latest complete unmanned destruction system. It can locate, fix, track, and strike a target up to 45 km away, then assess the attack result. REX is designed to drop various types of explosive ordnance on enemies, ranging from 2 to 8 with a total weight of 10 kg.Follow Army Recognition on Google News at this link

This multifunctional system is intended for reconnaissance, surveillance, fire adjustment, and inflicting fire damage operations. It has an operational range of 45 km and can fly for 1.5 hours with a takeoff mass of 16 kg and a maximum speed of 35 m/s. Developed by the Armadrone team in Ukraine and Poland, which has 7 years of experience in the field of combat drones, REX integrates advanced technologies and components, including Israeli ones. The high precision in strikes is crucial to minimize the risk of civilian casualties in combat zones. Moreover, its ability to be launched by limited means, such as by a team of two preparing and launching the drone, coupled with its endurance and payload, makes this drone particularly interesting in the ongoing war.
The system is developed taking into account combat experience and military needs. The Armadrone team in Ukraine and Poland, with 7 years of experience in creating combat drones, worked on the development. For now, information on this drone is limited as the production team is still in the phase of operational testing. We also know that REX can drop its bombs one by one or in a cascade to maximize the destructive and psychological effect on enemy positions.
