Concern Radio-Electronic Technologies (KRET) has developed and launched batch production of an anti-drone system. The new product was called Groza.04.K and is designed to suppress FPV (First Person View) type drones. The first batch has been already fielded.
The product developed by Research and Production Enterprise Kvant in Novgorod has passed all required tests and inspections to demonstrate its functionality and high anti-FPV-drone performance.
“In August 2023, the NPO Kvant personnel was tasked with the development of such type of anti-drone system. The first batch was supplied to the Ministry of Defence of the Russian Federation as early as in autumn. Everybody understood top priority of the task and a team of five young outcome-oriented bright engineers undertook it. Unique design solutions and project completion rate made us feel real pride in high professional skills of our personnel,” pointed out Andrey Kondrashov, General Director of NPO Kvant.
Modern FPV drones pose a great hazard for soldiers in the battle field. They are used for electronic and optoelectronic reconnaissance, radar and missile system diversion during an air attack. FPV drones may be equipped with special ammunition suspension devices. Drones use secure links and are immune to electronic warfare.
