Quote: "An incredible record: controlling a Sting at a distance of 2,000 km thanks to Hornet Vision Ctrl. The pilot, who was in another country, was controlling a Sting interceptor that was operating in Ukraine's north."

Details: Footage from the video shows the operator working on a laptop that is part of the ground control station used to operate the Sting interceptor.

The team said it has already begun to deploy the Hornet Vision Ctrl system.

"This is what previously enabled Roman Hulk from the Bulava unit to destroy two Shahed drones from 500 km away," Dyki Shershni noted.

The company added that it continues to test new capabilities of the system.

Hornet Vision Ctrl, which enables interceptor drones to be controlled over distances of hundreds of kilometres, was unveiled in late March as part of the Hornet Vision ecosystem.

In January, developers presented the digital Hornet Vision system for Sting interceptor drones. It supports both analogue and digital UAVs, can detect aerial targets at distances of up to 2 km, and features independent communication channels that can be switched during flight.

Dyki Shershni develops and mass-produces FPV drones, aerial interceptors, reconnaissance wings and loitering munitions, ground control stations, remote mining systems, bombing systems and aerial logistics solutions.
