According to the company, the drone contains modern technological solutions that will allow it to bypass enemy electronic warfare systems.. The drone has several communication channels at different frequencies with the necessary encryption algorithms. The drone is also equipped with CRP antennas.

The drone's on-board computer can track static and moving objects and automatically keep them in the center of the frame. The drone can also be used in conjunction with artillery and multiple launch rocket systems, in particular HIMARS.
