Kalashnikov Concern will demonstrate a system with SKAT 350 M UAV for the first time at the second World Defence Show – 2024 in Riyadh, the capital of Saudi Arabia, in February 4–8.

A commercially available SKAT 350 M UAV is designed for aerial surveillance and search of objects in optical and IR ranges, and is a result of in-depth modernization of well-proven Supercam 350 UAV. Considering the operation experience, Kalashnikov professionals have considerably improved the aerodynamic performance of the product and upgraded the ground control system.

The aircraft has received new design of the wing and control elements. Kalashnikov professionals have improved mechanical strength and operational reliability of the components, and have computerized many functions to facilitate operator training and further work.

The SKAT 350 M uses new payload with higher performance and implements engineering solutions that improve the functionality of daylight and thermal imaging cameras. The state-of-the-art module with upgraded algorithms facilitates the operator’s performance for target acquisition and stable tracking.

All listed modifications have already proved their efficiency in the course of operation by users and considerably increased the product marketability.
