"Deadly" cardboard and rubber drones: how UAVs will help fight the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation (video)

Corvo ppds unmanned aircraft fly 120 km and land on their own. Engineers have processed them in view of the feedback of Ukrainians. The Ukrainian military uses Corvo PPDS cardboard drones produced by SypaQ in Australia. This was reported by the Australian edition of 7News. According to media reports, Sypaq sends at least 100 cheap Corvo PPDs aircraft type with flat wings made of cardboard and rubber tapes every month.

The company itself on its site notes that disposable drones are delivered in disassembled form, can overcome the distance of up to 120 km and land independently, "removing the load from the soldier" during the fighting. According to SYPAQ director David Visino, cardboard drones were sent to Ukraine for use for humanitarian purposes, including for the delivery of medicines, food and water.

But the Ambassador of Ukraine to Australia Vasyl Miroshnichenko reported that the Ukrainian military is now using such UAVs to perform various tasks, including "deadly". According to Sypaq press service, Corvo PPDS was developed by SYPAQ experts in Melbourne in cooperation with the army and within the contract of the Defense Innovation Center for $ 1. 1 million. Judging by the published frames, UAVs are launched by catapult or hands, and they fly thanks to the engine with a propeller.

"It is a great honor for us to support the Armed Forces of Ukraine. PPDS is an Australian potential that will help the Ukrainian people to protect their country and is proof of the leading world capabilities of autonomous systems in the Australian industry," - said Sypaq CEO Amanda Golt.
