The new drone was intended exclusively for military use, in particular, the device was intended to be used for reconnaissance of the terrain, correcting artillery strikes, for detecting the hidden movement of the enemy and air targets within a radius of 250 kilometers. In 2009, the prototype device was presented at the aerospace show in Paris, however, this device continued to be developed and only in the 2012 year it underwent its first flight tests, which were completed very successfully, which allowed the serial production of unmanned aerial vehicles.
