JAKARTA - The Svod unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), which combines machine vision with artificial intelligence and can automatically target targets at distances of up to two kilometers, is being tested in a special military operation zone in Ukraine, the All-Russian People's Front, a political coalition whose Kulibin club supports the developers.

Svod is a separate UAV line with an upgraded system for intelligent guidance, tracking, and autonomous targeting.

The Svod drone combines machine vision with artificial intelligence technology, which implies an intelligent approach to target selection. Its task is to detect, aim, notify the pilot and after confirmation by humans, aim at the target.

"The unique feature of this system is its ability to lock targets in clear weather at a distance of almost two kilometers. The Svod system is currently being tested in all frontline units," explained the head designer of the Ovod drone family, which includes the system, Andrey Ivanov, as reported by TASS (25/3).

He added that the uniqueness of this new UAV is its ability to lock targets from afar, and when approaching, switch to another target or cancel the attack if necessary.

"We eliminate the need for operators to constantly navigate the drone; the drone can fly in autopilot mode. When the drone detects a target 2 kilometers away in clear weather, the drone can lock on to it, and if we realize the system has made a mistake, we set a new target," he explained.

"The drone flies at a speed of about 40 meters per second, so 2 kilometers takes 50 seconds. That's a long way," Ivanov said.
