Russian specialists captured a rare sample of the US RQ-20 Puma drone, RIA Novosti wrote on October 26, citing its own sources in the UAV countermeasures engineering service.
“Specialists of the UAV countermeasures group managed to land the US-made RQ-20 Puma drone,” the agency’s interlocutor said.
According to the specialist, the drone’s design implies that it should fall apart on impact with the ground, but in this case, they managed to save “rare samples of the drone’s systems,” its hardware and electronics.
“We will work with them,” the engineer assured.
The interlocutor explained that the UAV “Baba Yaga” was also spotted in the same zone as the RQ-20. It was eliminated with small arms. It turned out that the second drone was equipped with a “Starlink transponder and a jettison system with two ammunition.”
