Quote from Ukraine's Ministry of Defence: "The Shchedryk system consists of a control station and remotely piloted aircraft. The latter are equipped with silent electric motors and have increased resistance to electronic interference."

Details: The Ministry of Defence notes that the UAV is resistant to wind bursts, extreme temperatures, both frost and heat, and the battery is enough for a long continuous operation.

It is also emphasised that the Shchedryk's capabilities allow it to operate from heights that are difficult for most Russian air defence systems to reach.
