Thanks to the unique shape of its wings, the UAV has enhanced aerodynamic properties, making it possible to effectively reduce drag during flight as well as improve aerodynamic performance during takeoff and landing.

The jet engine is arranged with an air intake under the fuselage, combined with a rudder design in the nose to help the UAV achieve faster speeds and improve maneuverability. This design also increases the lift and drag ratio of the UAV. According to experts, with the appropriate equipment and equipment in the cargo compartment, this modern drone can be used for both reconnaissance and attack missions.

* Brazil finalized the purchase of ATMOS self-propelled guns 155mm of Israel

The results of the bidding to equip 155mm self-propelled guns for the Brazilian Army have resulted in a contract to provide this system to Israeli contractor Elbit Systems. This is the latest information announced by SA Defensa with a tweet on social network Elbit Systems surpassed France’s CAESAR, Slovakia’s Zuzana 2 and China’s SH-15.

Elbit Systems’ ATMOS 155mm is a 155mm wheeled self-propelled gun that uses 155mm caliber bullets. ATMOS was developed by Soltam Systems, which currently operates under the Elbit Systems umbrella. Currently ATMOS is considered one of the most advanced artillery assets in the international arms market with superior firepower, high mobility and simple combat deployment process.

ATMOS is mounted on a 6×6 or 8×8 high-mobility truck chassis, ensuring the ability to operate on all types of terrain. One of the main features of the system is its design flexibility, allowing the combination of many different types of artillery barrels and compatibility with any NATO standard 155mm ammunition, making it the optimal choice to meet different combat requirements.

ATMOS uses common types of ammunition such as high-explosive (HE) bullets, range-enhancing bullets, camouflaged smoke bullets, illuminating bullets and cluster bullets. In addition, ATMOS can also deploy anti-tank bullets, capable of penetrating the thick armor of tanks and armored vehicles.
