Russische Prototyp Tarnkappen-Drohne vor erstem Flug

June 4, 2019 - Der Prototyp der russischen Tarnkappen-Drohne soll ihren ersten Flug im Juli oder August absolvieren. Die Suchoi S-70 Ochotnik (Jäger) fliegt vollkommen autonom und folgt einem vorprogrammierten Flugplan, laut Meldung der russischen Nachrichtenagentur TASS.

The S-70 uses a flat “flying wing” design similar in shape to the U.S. Air Force's B-2 stealth bomber, and is reportedly designed to perform reconnaissance and strike missions.

The first flight, due to take place at Sukhoi’s Novosibirsk aviation plant, could signal the start of a long development process potentially ending with the Russian air force operating fighter-style stealth drones, according to U.S.-based journal The National Interest.
