The Hunter C-70 shock drone will be launched no earlier than in 5 years.

Despite the successful completion of the first flight, the Russian hunter unmanned aerial vehicle C-70 “Okhotnik” was not ready for the start of mass production. If it was originally assumed that this drone could begin to enter service with the Russian Aerospace Forces already in the 2021 year, then as part of the MAKS-2019 air show, Deputy Prime Minister of the Russian Federation Yury Borisov announced that the drone will be mass-produced only for the 2024 year .

What exactly is connected with such a large delay for the Russian unmanned aerial vehicle is still unknown, however, experts have already commented on the possible reasons for this.

“Nothing of the kind has ever been created in Russia before. It is possible that some problems are to blame for everything, which is more than likely ", - the expert Avia.pro marks.

Nevertheless, Borisov’s statement caused serious criticism among ordinary users of the Network, who believe that by the time mass production begins, the Russian Okhotnik will simply become obsolete.

“With today's program, the drone by 2024 is already morally obsolete”

"In 2025, China wants to test the unmanned fighter" Dark Sword ", which is likely to become the first fighter of the sixth generation, and in Russia only by this period will they begin to master the drone"
