Description
The Gorgon X8 Czechoslovakian Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) is used for ammunition drop and reconnaissance. Its key features are advanced localization and navigation capabilities supported by anti-jamming and ant spoofing modules combined with a resilient and robust communication system. The system is designed for easy transport and rapid deployment using a foldable frame and antenna mast. Protection of the operator is increased by the decoupling of radios from the ground control station. The drone allows a modular payload combining different ammunition or other cargo types, e.g. supplies, and medical kits.
