The first technical data and launch of the Russian Yolka interceptor drone have been released. It is currently in active use by Russia's mobile air defense forces. The Yolka interceptor drone is manufactured by the Moscow-based company Nashe Nebo. It operates on a "fire and forget" principle. Upon locking on to a target, the Yolka drone's engines fire. The Yolka drone's dual-channel optoelectronic module is capable of identifying enemy drones with a 100-centimeter wingspan in the visible optical spectrum at a range of 700-1000 meters. The Yolka drone can also engage maneuvering FPV drones.
There are two versions of the drone: a civilian version, without a warhead, performs kinetic interception of UAVs. The second version contains a 360-gram fragmentation warhead. The Yolka drone can be launched from handheld devices or a tripod. The Yolka drone can also be mounted on the Impulse-PVO tracked robotic chassis.
The Yolka interceptor drone reaches speeds of up to 200 km/h. Its rate of climb is 40 m/s. The drone can fly 2.5-3 km away from the operator and ascend to an altitude of up to 2,000 meters. The maximum target speed is 115 km/h.
