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.

Russia has launched the first 5G satellites. The Russian aerospace company, Bureau 1440, has launched the first 16 satellites of the Rassvet low-orbit constellation into orbit. We previously reported on Bureau 1440, which is developing a Russian equivalent of the Starlink satellite system. The satellites have already been launched into reference orbit and are under the control of Bureau 1440's Mission Control Center. After completing checkout and launching their onboard systems, they will begin their journey to their target orbit. It's worth noting that the Russian military is currently in dire need of 5G satellite communications.
The spacecraft are based on the company's proprietary platform and integrate NTN's 5G communications system. The first customer tests will begin in 2026. A total of more than 250 satellites will be launched into orbit to provide global 24/7 communications coverage. The new-generation spacecraft build on the results of the experimental Rassvet-1 and Rassvet-2 missions, but surpass them in key characteristics. It is expected that these spacecraft will enable Russian residents to access the internet via satellite at speeds of up to 1 Gbps.
