New Innovation in Drone Development, future Warfare

Russia’s first stealth combat drone is a continuation of an earlier MiG project called ‘Skat’. The Sukhoi S-70 Okhotnik drone is powered by an AL-31 turbojet engine and is expected to fly at a top speed of 1,000 kilometers per hour, with a range of 6,000 kilometers. But what differentiates this UAV from other similar aircraft is its size: it can carry almost three tons of armament and has an operational range of 6,000 km. 

Okhotnik is designed to function in tandem with the Su-57 fifth-generation jet fighter and is set to enter into service with the Russian Air Force by 2025. Currently, there are two operational prototypes of Okhotnik B.
