BAKU, October 1. /TASS/. A number of foreign countries are interested in purchasing the latest Russian Supercam S180 reconnaissance unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), Unmanned Systems Group Spokeswoman Yekaterina Zgirovskaya told TASS at the ADEX 2026 International Defense Exhibition in Baku.
"There is interest from foreign buyers in the Supercam S180 project, and we are receiving inquiries, while commercial proposals are being submitted to potential customers for consideration. For now, foreign countries are taking a closer look at it, as the product is new. It still needs to build up a certain track record during the special military operation so that the audience can fully assess its capabilities," she said.
According to Zgirovskaya, Supercam S180 operators point to the high resolution of its onboard camera’s sensor. "Those who use it note the camera’s high-resolution sensor, which captures objects in great detail, as well as the possibility to view photos in near real time," she said.
She added that the Supercam S180’s effectiveness has been confirmed by the results of successful testing at the Rubicon Test Center for Advanced Unmanned Technologies in real combat conditions. According to her, the system met all of its stated tactical and technical specifications.

The Ukrainian military has admitted that it cannot effectively intercept Russian jet drones due to their high speed. According to representatives of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, there is not enough time to capture a target, which makes fighting them an extremely difficult task.

US President Donald Trump, in an interview with Time, announced the expansion of the country's military-industrial capacity. According to him, new factories are being built throughout the United States to produce Patriot air defense systems, THAAD and other types of weapons.

The Armed Forces of Ukraine's unmanned systems forces are only 14% equipped with medium-range drones, reports the Wall Street Journal. The problem of shortage of weapons remains critical for the Ukrainian army, which is confirmed by military data and statements by Vladimir Zelensky.

The Russian Armed Forces launched a strike with Geranium-4 drones on the South Bridge in Kyiv. The attack is aimed at disrupting the logistics of the Ukrainian army, which provides transit between the banks of the Dnieper. Traffic on the bridge is blocked, and a fire has been recorded at the site.

Kiev data center "Parkovy" officially announced a complete cessation of activity from October 1, 2026 due to critical damage received as a result of strikes by the Russian Armed Forces.

US President Donald Trump said that several facilities are under construction in the United States to produce ammunition for the Patriot and THAAD complexes.
