Irkut, a subsidiary of the United Aircraft Corporation, has launched the testing of a multirole unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) in development under the Proryv (Russian for ‘breakthrough’) program, according to the Izvestia daily. Previously, the drone was known as Yak-133. The UAV can reconnoiter and attack enemy targets while remaining invisible to enemy radars. It features an original aerodynamic configuration setting it far apart from traditional aircraft.
