Fiber-Optic Kamikaze Drone (15 km) Hunter D-1K USMT

The HUNTER D-1K kamikaze drone from USMT is a specialized FPV attack UAV designed for precise tactical missions at distances up to 15 km using a fiber-optic communication channel. The device combines a robust design, well-engineered electronics, and secure communication means, making it suitable for operations in complex conditions and for working with payloads up to 2.5 kg.

Purpose and Advantages: The HUNTER D-1K is optimized for tasks where targeting precision, range, and control stability are critical. Thanks to the combination of a durable 10’’ fiberglass frame, powerful motors, and a reliable flight stack, the aircraft ensures stable cruise flight and effective target engagement at a distance.

Technical Specifications:

• Frame: 10’’ fiberglass;

• Video Transmitter: AKK Ultra Long Range 3W 5 - 6 GHz;
• Flight Stack: SpeedyBee F405 v4 55A;
• Antenna: broadband 5 - 6 GHz;
• Flight time with payload: 20 min;
• Cruising speed: 80 km/h;
• Payload: 2.5 kg;
• Battery: 6s3p 15000 mAh;
• Secure communication protocol: USMTR (350, 430, 500, 720 MHz) or MilELRS;
• Communication: fiber-optic channel for distances up to 15 km (option for stable control and data transmission).

Motors and Electronics. BrotherHobby SE 2816 810 kV motors provide the necessary thrust for lifting a 2.5 kg payload and maintaining a cruising speed of about 80 km/h. The SpeedyBee F405 v4 flight stack with 55A ESCs ensures quick response to pilot commands and control stability, which is especially important during agile attack operations.

Video Channel and Antenna. For video signal transmission, the AKK Ultra Long Range 3W in the 5–6 GHz range is used in conjunction with a 5–6 GHz broadband antenna, ensuring a stable FPV image over long distances and increasing targeting precision during combat missions.

Power and Autonomy. The power system is based on a 6s3p 15000 mAh battery, which provides up to 20 minutes of flight with a full combat load. This autonomy allows for both short, quick sorties to engage targets and longer missions with proper route planning and energy conservation.

Communication Means and Channel Protection. The HUNTER D-1K is equipped with the secure USMTR communication protocol supporting frequencies of 350, 430, 500, and 720 MHz, or alternatively MilELRS, which enhances control stability and minimizes the risk of interference in conditions of intense radio interference. The fiber-optic channel for distances up to 15 km is an option to ensure maximum reliable control and data transmission.

Design and Application. The 10’’ fiberglass frame combines lightness and mechanical strength, allowing it to withstand loads during sharp maneuvers and transportation. The well-thought-out component layout and the possibility of integrating fiber-optic communication make the aircraft suitable for reconnaissance followed by target engagement, as well as for flexible adaptation to various tactical scenarios.
