Current status of project development
- There are the first samples that were tested at the test site together with the military, positive feedback was received.
- The logistics system for supplying components has been studied, options for their interchangeability have been worked out.
- The assembly process of products has been studied. A system for configuring drones for work has been established.
- Drone test trials (flights) have been conducted.
- The codification process has begun (obtaining permission to sell the MD)
Staff
There is a team of 3 people. For a batch of 1000 sets per month, it is necessary to attract another 7-10 people.
