About Buntar-3

Buntar-3 is a fixed-wing tactical reconnaissance system designed around field launch, long-range observation and recovery under electronic-warfare pressure. Its aircraft carries stabilised electro-optical payloads and uses mission software to collect, geolocate and distribute target information across the operating unit.

The Buntar-3 system includes aircraft, ground equipment, communications and operator training. Navigation and control modes are configured for degraded satellite and radio conditions, while replaceable mission equipment allows the platform to support reconnaissance, targeting and artillery-adjustment workflows. Buntar-3 has moved into operational production and field use in Ukraine.
