The first drone to break up rallies

In the 60-70s, people were optimistic about the future: they launched a satellite, landed on the moon, tamed atomic energy. It seemed that we were about to launch the tokamaks, master the orbit and populate the neighboring planets. And only the journalist George Orwell (although he died in 1950) did not share the universal rejoicing. However, his strange book “1984” did not interest his contemporaries.

Today we see that described in the works of Philip Dick and other cyberpunk authors, as well as in George Orwell, is embodied in reality with frightening accuracy. Meet Skunk - the world's first drone, designed to disperse street demonstrations. Big brother loves you,%% username!

The UAV manufactured by Desert Wolf is equipped with four paint cannons, which are supposed to be used to mark the rally participants for subsequent arrest. It has a searchlight and a loudspeaker through which law enforcement agencies can turn to the demonstrators, urging them to disperse.

Instead of paintball guns, other equipment is also put on the drone, for example, pepper gas sprayers. In the same guns are charged and more traumatic plastic balls. Rate of fire: 20 shots per second. The developers are confident that 80 bullets per second with a pepper vodka will stop any crowd.



The payload capacity of the eight-engine apparatus is 45 kg, and the barrels with 4000 round bullets weigh 15 kg, so there is a good reserve.

The drone is equipped with two high-resolution video cameras for capturing the crowd, as well as an infrared camera for working in the dark.

Desert Wolf has already begun production of UAVs, there are also the first customers (in the mining industry). The company also offers other UAV models, including the Wasp helicopter for tracking targets during the day and night.
