The new Ukrainian R-34-T UAV, capable of illuminating targets with a laser for high-precision weapons, has received codification according to NATO standards and has been officially approved for use in the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
According to a press release from the FRDM GROUP company, which developed the drone for the Ukrainian Armed Forces, the drone has undergone a full cycle of tests and is ready to operate in combat conditions. Its main task is to provide laser target designation for guided artillery and aviation ammunition.
The R-34-T is capable of significantly increasing the effectiveness of fire damage, particularly at long distances and in difficult conditions where enemy air defenses operate. The drone has protected communication channels, a modular design, and high resistance to electronic warfare. Thanks to this, it can operate in conditions of active electronic countermeasures.
The company notes that the introduction of such technology is a breakthrough in the field of high-precision weapon guidance, as it allows for more accurate use of resources, reduces ammunition consumption, and reduces risks for operators and units.
This is a Ukrainian technology company that creates robotic solutions for the defense sector. The company’s goal is to develop innovative systems to protect Ukraine both on the ground and in the air. The company has previously introduced a number of ground platforms for reconnaissance and evacuation.
