The specialized publication about weapons, Defense Blog, writes about this.
The publication notes that the presented RAM UAV system belongs to a type of weapon system in which ammunition autonomously “staggers” over a given plane for a certain time in search of a target, and attacks it if detected.
It is indicated that the glider of the drone-ammunition reaches a length of 1,8 m, wings of 2,3 m and a maximum take-off weight of 8 kg.
It is also reported that the drone is launched from a catapult and can remain in the air for about 40 minutes, and its maximum flight range reaches 30 km.
