Takhion

The Takhion is a Russian micro unmanned aerial vehicle made by Kalashnikov Group's Izhevsk Unmanned Systems and used by the Russian Army. Its main role is reconnaissance, sending real-time data back to a ground control station. It is small enough to be carried easily to the front line and uses a flying-wing design with a two-bladed nose propeller and winglets at the wingtips. It has been used in the Donbas and during the Russian invasion of Ukraine.
