Motanka-13

Motanka-13 is a 13-inch digital fiber-optic FPV loitering munition (kamikaze UAV) designed for precision strike missions at short and medium ranges. Equipped with a fully digital fiber-optic communication system, the platform provides interference-resistant command and control, high-definition video transmission, and reliable target engagement in electronically contested environments.

The UAV is capable of carrying payloads of up to 2.5 kg over operational distances of 20–30 km, making it suitable for conventional strike missions as well as long-duration ambush (“wait-and-strike”) operations against enemy logistics and high-value targets in rear areas. With cruising speeds of 80 km/h and maximum speeds reaching 90 km/h, the platform offers an effective balance of endurance, payload capacity, and maneuverability.

Motanka-13 features digital HD video transmission with integrated OSD and real-time signal quality monitoring, ensuring continuous situational awareness throughout the mission. A fully digital fiber-optic control channel eliminates signal degradation caused by electronic warfare, while an optical communication system supporting transmission distances of up to 80 km provides exceptional link reliability.

The UAV incorporates a dual side-mounted battery configuration, reducing overall dimensions while improving stability and maneuverability. An integrated fiber management system prevents accidental fiber release during flight, even in strong winds, ensuring reliable operation throughout the mission.
