Description
The D-20K Russian Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) is designed for vertical take-off and landing, enabling it to operate in remote and extended areas, as well as over large landscapes. The D-20K UAV consists of several key components: 1. **Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV)**: Designed with a "duck" aerodynamic configuration. 2. **Power Unit**: Powered by a 40 cm³ internal combustion engine with a capacity of 3.7 hp, featuring a unique vibration-damping motor frame and a starter generator. 3. **Ground Control Station (GCS)**: Allows for monitoring and controlling the UAV. The D-20K can take off and land on an unprepared site measuring 7 x 7 meters. It can also be equipped with various payload options, including: - A high-resolution nadir camera. - High-resolution nadir and perspective cameras. - A thermal imager and multispectral camera. - A laser scanner.

Variants
D-20
The D-20 Russian Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) is designed for operation in remote and extended areas, including those with large-scale facilities and objects. With a flight duration of 14 hours, the D-20 can cover distances of over 1000 km. The D-20 Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) includes the following components: - **Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV):** Constructed using a “duck” aerodynamic configuration. - **Power Unit:** Features an internal combustion engine of 40 cm³ with a capacity of 3.7 hp, mounted on a unique vibration-damping motor frame, complete with a starter generator. - **Starting Device:** Equipped with rubber shock absorbers. - **Ground Control Station (GCS).** With a full fuel load, the UAV can carry a payload of up to 5 kg. Its design incorporates two compartments for payload placement, allowing for the simultaneous use of multiple loads. The potential payload options include: - High-resolution camera - Video surveillance system - Multispectral camera - Thermal imaging camera - Magnetometric equipment

Payloads Aerophotographic Camera
Aerophotographic camera is designed to capture a series of image frames of the underlying terrain from the aircraft board and saving them on a solid-state recorder
Aerial Laser Scanners
Aerial laser scanners are used for geodetic measurements during geotechnical investigations, surveying, cadastral and land management works.
Multispectral Camera
Enables images of the same area in different areas of the electromagnetic spectrum, revealing processes and phenomena that are difficult to detect in a visible spectrum image.
Professional Thermal Imaging Camera AC-130/40T
The AC-130/40T possesses a function of real-time temperature measurement and when saving photos of an object each pixel of the picture contains information about temperature.
Multipurpose Payload AC- 170/30/19T
Multipurpose payload AC-170/30/19T combines at once visual and thermal imaging matrices. This helps to reduce the camera weight and allows to receive twice as large the data during the flight, hence increasing the efficiency of air inspection.
