The ZALA Z-16 UAV unit of the 18th Combined Arms Army of the Dnipro force group corrected the destruction of an AFU barrel artillery gun in the Kherson region. During aerial reconnaissance, the Z-16 operator detected a shot from a gun camouflaged in a forest belt. The identified coordinates were promptly transmitted to the howitzer division's control centre. Within minutes, the artillerymen opened fire and destroyed the AFU artillery piece with a precise shot, followed by the detonation of ammunition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A technician-operator of the ZALA UAV with the call sign \u00abChibis\u00bb told about the peculiarities of the work of the unmanned reconnaissance drone crew. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u00abI came in \u00bb24, literally a month later I was already working quietly. I drove myself, worked out, came, started and planted. Already as an experience, we worked, left, that is, we try not to stay long, we worked literally 6-7 minutes and left. That is, it is together with unloading and loading,\" said the fighter. \n<\/blockquote>\nIt is noted that the ZALA Z-16 UAV can survey the terrain at a distance of up to 100 kilometres and stay in the air for more than four hours. The high autonomy of the Z-16 allows fighters to conduct long-term surveillance of certain areas of the front, promptly identifying enemy targets in the occupied territory.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
