PR-DC Introduces IKA-ROCKET: First Military-Certified Multicopter Capable of Launching Three Aircraft Rockets
Following successful internal testing, PR-DC announces the introduction of world’s first military-certified multicopter capable of launching three aircraft rockets (S5 or BR-1-57, BR-2-57).
Testing demonstrated that the system can withstand the impact of rocket launches from all three launch positions during both hover and forward flight. This represents a major step forward in the development of armed multicopters and highlights the growing capabilities of such systems.
The IKA-ROCKET is based on the IKA-20-M drone, a certified military-grade hexacopter designed for autonomous day and night operations and capable of supporting multiple mission-relevant payload configurations in accordance with defined operational requirements.
The demonstrated rocket-launching configuration highlights the adaptability of the IKA-20-M platform and its ability to support multiple armament options within a modular operational concept. To date, the system has been configured to carry both aerial bombs and rockets.
