This quadcopter drone looks ordinary in dimensions, but if you look at the payload and its destructive power, the quadcopter drone labeled Revolver 860 is definitely not just any drone.
The Revolver 860, which belongs to the UCAV (Unmmaned Combat Aerial Vehicle) class, does have a frightening destructive power, because this drone can carry a 'drum' that can launch eight mortars with a revolver mechanism, making this mini drone able to destroy infantry strongholds.
Produced by DronesVision, a drone manufacturer from Taiwan, it is reported that there are 800 units of Revolver 860 which are now being donated by Taiwan to Ukraine. Launching from Polish technology media WP Tech (18/8/2022), it was stated that the Ukrainian military had acquired 800 Taiwan-made Revolver 860 VTOL UAVs as a form of donation.
Meanwhile, a spokesman for DronesVision, told Taiwan News, that the company provides military equipment to Poland-based companies and cannot comment on where these companies transfer drones next, citing "non-disclosure agreements" with its clients. .
Whether or not the Revolver 860 is used in Ukraine, it is interesting to observe this type of high-destruction quadcopter drone. The Revolver 860 is a military combat rotor drone designed to attack ground troops by dropping mortars.
Its optimal gun bay design provides up to eight sets of 60mm caliber mortars, DronesVision said, that adoption of other calibers can be discussed for manufacture on client's request. DronesVison claims the Revolver 860 is ideal for special operations due to its heavy payload capability.
From the dronesvision.com page, it is known that the Revolver 860 can fly as far as 20 km with an endurance of 20-40 minutes. Although the standard specifications carry 8 sets of 60 mm caliber mortars, but with modifications (it will affect endurance and cruising range), the drone can carry 81 mm to 120 mm caliber mortars. As with the configuration of 8 sets of 60 mm mortars, the Revolver 860 weighs 42 kg.
