Ruselectronics Holding and Concern Avtomatika operating as part of Rostec State Corporation have tested an automated complex intended for monitoring the state of transmission lines, Rostec informed.

The complex includes UAVs with multifunctional charging stations and special software for processing the recorded photo and video materials.

The specialized software developed by Vega Corporation (operating as part of Ruselectronics Holding) ensures autonomous operation of the complex. Following a given route, UAVs determine the necessary photo and video shooting angles without human assistance. The developers have also fitter the UAVs up with a system of precision landing on docking stations.

The use of drones equipped with a camera and thermal sights detects malfunctions in the equipment, which drastically reduces the number of failures in power lines.

  Light combat Yak-130M
  The presentation of the Ya-130M aircraft took place at the international military-technical forum "Army-2024", which was held from August 12 to 14, 2024 at the Patriot Convention and Exhibition Center. It should be noted right away that this is not just the modernization of the Yak-130 aircraft, but the transformation of a combat training aircraft into a full-fledged light combat aircraft. In the information field, this event was marked by a number of brief reports from federal news agencies. But the project, like the Yak-130 aircraft with its unique flight characteristics, deserves a more detailed review, which we decided to do.
