“Hunter” will serve as a “universal base platform for deploying promising aviation weapons,” TASS quoted the apparatus of Deputy Prime Minister Yuri Borisov.

It is noted that in order to bring the UAV to the level of a serial sample, a large amount of testing is required.

“The main volume of flight tests is planned to be performed in the period 2023–2024,” the text says.

On August 3, the Russian drone "Hunter" made its first flight.
