In addition to its propulsion system, the KZ-350 features fully autonomous navigation, not relying on external GNSS/GPS signals. Thanks to specially developed avionics and built-in visual-odometry algorithms, the system can navigate and reach designated coordinates independently of satellite positioning.

Once a mission profile is uploaded, the KZ-350 operates in a “fire-and-forget” mode, autonomously following the designated route to the target and striking without external control.

Drone specifications:

• Range: ~350 km

• Cruising speed: 500 km/h

• Cruising altitude: 3,000 m

• Takeoff weight: 120 kg

• Warhead: 25 kg

• Navigation: GNSS/GPS signals, supplemented by odometric data where necessary

• Propulsion: Two domestically produced jet engines
