⚠️Russia has secretly launched the production of strike drones in China, Reuters reports

The "Izhevsk Electromechanical Plant 'Kupol'" developed the latest "Harpy-3" UAV and has already tested it in China with local specialists. This drone can cover around 2,000 km with a payload of 50 kg. Additionally, within the next eight months, Russia plans to start the production of another joint development with China—a strike drone called REM 1 with a payload capacity of up to 400 kg, which will be comparable to the American Reaper drone.

During the summer, Russia already received at least seven drones from the Chinese base and launched large-scale production. The factory in China covers an area of 80 hectares and will be able to produce 800 UAVs per year.
