The Kalashnikov consortium will present for the first time a new portable unmanned reconnaissance and attack system for the Middle East market during the World Defense Show, which will take place in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia from February 8 to 12.
The system, which has been given the designation RUS-PE, has been developed for fast and highly precise attack missions against single targets, both fixed and mobile, as well as against target groups. The solution uses precision-guided ammunition that can operate in different modes of use, which increases tactical flexibility in varied scenarios.

The guided munition in RUS-PE consists of an aircraft with an X-shaped structure for mounting aerodynamic surfaces. The system integrates a warhead, a guidance system and a self-seeking guidance head (CAG), which is responsible for the target approach. Launching takes place from a portable transport and launch container using a pneumatic launch system.
According to the manufacturer, the self-seeking control head enables the RUS-PE to operate in autonomous, semi-autonomous or manual modes. The two-channel gyro-stabilized optical system enables automatic detection and identification of fixed and moving targets, with the support of artificial intelligence.
The stated performances include a flight time of up to 30 minutes and a cruising speed of around 140 km/h, characteristics that position the RUS-PE as a solution aimed at rapid response operations and precise target engagement in complex environments.
