Ministry of Defence codified UAV “Vespa-15”

The Defence Forces of Ukraine will soon receive new Vespa-15 drones, which have been codified and approved for use by the Ministry of Defence of Ukraine.

The Ukrainian-made unmanned aerial system Vespa-15 has been adapted for a range of missions at any time of day or night. The drones are lightweight and compact, capable of flying several dozen kilometres while carrying a substantial combat payload. They are also highly resistant to enemy electronic countermeasures.

According to the report, “Vespa” can target not only enemy personnel, but also armoured vehicles, transport, field shelters and more. The ministry did not disclose further details regarding the drone or its manufacturer.

As a reminder, the previous day Defence Intelligence released specifications of the Magura series surface unmanned vessels.
