"Belarus has developed the Yastreb heavy unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) with a payload capacity of 700 kg. This is the heaviest drone developed by the country," the source said.

The Yastreb UAS (Unmanned Aerial System) integrates a twin-boom unmanned aerial vehicle that takes off and land like a fixed-wing aircraft.It is powered by a Rotax-912S2/100 combustion engine, producing a speed of 120-220 km/h and an endurance of 6 hours or 10 hours without/with an external fuel tank. The vehicle carries 120 kg of useful payload.

The Yastreb`s sensor suite incorporates a daylight camera, thermal imager, and laser rangefinder and is mounted on a gyrostabilized platform.

The Yastreb is armed with two or three small kamikaze drone with a weight of 25 kg each, which are attached to the vehicle’s external hardpoints. The kamikaze drones feature a 10 kg high-explosive fragmentation or high-explosive anti-tank warhead and an automated guidance system. They have a range of up to 50 km, being able to hit a target with a circular error probable of no more than 1-2 m, the manufacturer claims.
