The developers note that the platform is designed for stealth use in challenging maritime conditions.

For many Rus soldiers at the front, this may be an easier and faster way to put together a heavy drone based on their needs - since there are lots of FPVs available to attach to the frame, without the need to wait for Russian defense companies to start mass-producing heavy drones.

This is about extracting a potentially high cost with relative low investment in a worse case scenario.

Some pilots are already available among drug cartels…

And this tactic is also contingent on Venezuela having many experienced FPV drone pilots, which are still in short supply everywhere.

The FPV idea makes tactical sense, with Ukraine war as a backdrop, in terms of using cheap numerous drones against a superior military adversary. Venezuela has not signaled if it actually has any FPV drones to date in it’s arsenal.
