The Russian drone “Hunter” was shown in an unusual form.
As part of the anticipated start of the opening of the MAKS-2019 air show, photos were published of the latest Russian S-70 Hunter unmanned aerial vehicle. Despite the fact that the drone had already caused genuine interest among specialists, an unusual detail was noticed in the photos of the drone’s mockup - a flat nozzle, while the drone had a cylindrical nozzle as part of the flight tests.

A variety of assumptions have already been made on this subject, including the question of the carelessness of those who created the model of an unmanned aircraft for the MAKS-2019 air show. Nevertheless, to the data of specialists of the Avia.pro resource, it is precisely such a nozzle that the drone will have when it starts to be mass-produced.
“Such a nozzle design is a well-thought-out step, as it will seriously reduce the drone's visibility. It is possible that similar nozzles will appear on Su-57 fighters, but this will be relevant only when new engines begin to be installed on combat aircraft. ”, - the expert marks.
It should be clarified that no official comments have yet been submitted on this subject.
This was done especially for us !! So that there was reason to be smart at the discussion!))))))
