The Ministry of Defence of Ukraine has codified and authorized the 'RONNI-13' UAV for operational use within the Armed Forces of Ukraine. This was reported by the MoD's Main Directorate for Support of the Life Cycle of Weapons and Military Equipment.

This drone equipped with fiber-optic control was developed by a Ukrainian company based on the combat experience of our defenders. Equipped with a robust, lightweight frame, capacious batteries, and high-performance brushless motors, these 'combat birds' can deliver combat payloads to engage enemy personnel and equipment at significant distances.

Depending on operational requirements, 'RONNI-13' drones can be fitted with various types of cameras, enabling them to conduct missions both day and night.

A reminder to defense equipment manufacturers: helpful information on the procedure for codifying new models of weapons and military equipment is available here.
