🔥 Surgical Precision of the RSS «Lancet»

➡️ The RSS «Lancet» loitering munition is a UAV with an integrated warhead. It can remain over the battlefield for an extended period while awaiting a command, then attack the target by diving like a guided missile.

💥 The system engages targets at distances of dozens of kilometers: the operator sees the target point on the screen through the TV guidance channel until the moment of impact.

✖️ The RSS «Lancet» is the world’s first UAV with a double X-shaped tail. This improves its behavior during diving and maneuvering, while also reducing its dimensions.

⚙️ The system includes a reconnaissance, navigation, and communications module. It determines coordinates using ground objects, so the UAV does not require satellite navigation. Its built-in protection also makes it resistant even to laser weapons.

ZALA Z-16 UAV Night Operations: Direct Hits on Targets with UMPK-Equipped Aerial Bombs in the Zaporizhzhia Region

At night, a ZALA Z-16 reconnaissance UAV monitored strikes by the Russian Aerospace Forces on enemy positions near the settlement of Novoselovka.

The aircraft used aerial bombs equipped with UMPK guidance kits. UAV data recorded the high accuracy of the target hits.

This made it possible to increase pressure on the enemy’s defences and create conditions for the further advance of assault units of the 38th Guards Motorized Rifle Brigade of the Vostok group of forces in the Zaporizhzhia region.

ZALA RSS «Lancet» Crew Destroyed an Enemy Armored Fighting Vehicle on a Night Road

A ZALA RSS «Lancet» crew of the 61st Separate Guards Marine Brigade destroyed an AFU armoured fighting vehicle moving along a night road. A precise strike was delivered against the enemy vehicle by a RSS «Lancet» loitering munition equipped with the IRRA intelligent guidance and target-recognition system. The destruction of the enemy armored fighting vehicle was confirmed by footage from the onboard cameras of a second loitering munition, which was also used to destroy targets in this sector.

ZALA RSS «Lancet» Crew Destroyed an AFU EW Station in the DPR

The target was detected by operators of a ZALA Z-16 reconnaissance UAV from the reconnaissance-strike battalion of the 238th Guards Artillery Brigade. The enemy attempted to conceal an AFU Anklav electronic warfare station, mounted on a pickup truck, under trees near the settlement of Sergeyevka.

Objective-control footage from the Z-16 UAV shows how a high-precision strike by a RSS «Lancet» loitering munition caused the enemy vehicle to catch fire and be destroyed.

ZALA Robotic Platform Successfully Completed Key Scenarios on Sakhalin

The ZALA universal robotic system confirmed its effectiveness during testing activities, demonstrating the high social significance of introducing such technologies. The testing of transport and rescue scenarios showed that the platform can reduce risks to people and improve response speed in critical areas.

At the airfield site, the system towed an aircraft, replacing a heavy towing vehicle with a driver. During the delivery of engineering equipment across rough terrain, the platform confidently crossed off-road sections, performed a turn in place, and ensured the safety of the cargo. The system’s payload capacity exceeds 150 kg, while its operating range reaches 50 km.

At a motocross track, an emergency evacuation scenario was tested: after receiving a signal from an emergency beacon, the robotic platform promptly transported a simulated casualty to an ambulance, avoiding unnecessary shaking. Control was carried out remotely from a distant situation center through the sovereign ZALA GEOСOSMOS communication and navigation system. Live video and telemetry were transmitted to the 4Z1 software.

The tests confirmed the ability of ZALA systems to significantly change the approach to logistics and rescue operations in the interests of society.

African Corps: Pickup Truck Carrying Terrorists in Mali Destroyed by a ZALA RSS «Lancet» Crew

The ZALA Z-16 reconnaissance UAV is actively used by the African Corps of the Russian Ministry of Defenсe to collect intelligence during operations in the Republic of Mali. During aerial reconnaissance near the settlement of Tidermène, a pickup truck belonging to a terrorist group and transporting militants and weapons was detected.

The vehicle and terrorists were destroyed by a strike from a RSS «Lancet» loitering munition. The precise hit on the target was confirmed by objective-control footage from a ZALA Z-16 reconnaissance UAV.

ZALA RSS «Lancet» Crews Destroyed Ukrainian Bogdana and Paladin Self-Propelled Howitzers in the Zaporizhzhia Region

Operators of ZALA Z-16 reconnaissance UAVs of the Vostok group of forces identified the positions of enemy guns concealed in forest belts. Data on the AFU positions was promptly transmitted to RSS «Lancet» loitering munitionoperators. The onboard IRRA intelligent guidance and target-recognition system helped the crews deliver precise strikes on the targets despite the guns being camouflaged in dense vegetation.

According to the Russian Ministry of Defence, precise hits destroyed a Bogdana self-propelled howitzer and a Paladin self-propelled howitzer.

ZALA RSS «Lancet» Crews Cut Off AFU Logistics near Krasny Lyman

ZALA RSS «Lancet» crews are disrupting enemy logistics routes as Ukrainian forces attempt to regroup near Krasny Lyman. The liberation of the city opens the possibility of blocking Slavyansk and Kramatorsk — key logistics hubs of the AFU.

Operators of RSS «Lancet» loitering munitions reliably strike any moving target — from light vehicles to infantry shelters — helping assault units clear urban blocks and methodically push the enemy out of its remaining hideouts. According to servicemen, the onboard artificial intelligence ensures a precise hit by almost every launched munition.

“The chances of missing are very low because it has artificial intelligence: it locks onto the target and goes directly toward it,” said a Russian serviceman with the callsign “Gurya.”

ZALA Presented Advanced Unmanned Systems and Digital Technologies at the Wings of Sakhalin Forum

From July 3 to 4, 2026, ZALA is taking part in the 2nd International Forum “Wings of Sakhalin,” held at the Pushisty droneport. The company’s exposition is one of the largest at the forum: ZALA demonstrated its full range of unmanned platforms for air, sea, and land, as well as digital solutions that have proven their effectiveness in industry, science, and infrastructure projects.

The exposition received significant attention from Valery Limarenko, Governor of the Sakhalin Region. Earlier, at SPIEF, the regional government, ZALA, and Aurora Airlines signed a cooperation agreement providing for the development of aviation technologies, ground infrastructure, and the deployment of the sovereign ZALA GEOCOSMOS communication and navigation system. The Governor was presented with real-world scenarios for the use of aerial, ground, and maritime unmanned systems.

At the forum, the company presented its time-proven ZALA T-16 systems for monitoring fuel and energy sector facilities, equipped with the intelligent IRRA system. A special T-16 ARCTIC modification, designed for operation in extreme climatic conditions, was also demonstrated.

On land, forum participants were shown the capabilities of the ZALA Universal Robotic System. In real conditions, it demonstrated its effectiveness in solving a wide range of civil tasks, including aircraft towing, cargo and fuel delivery, and emergency evacuation of people.

All types of ZALA unmanned systems presented at the Wings of Sakhalin forum are integrated into a seamless information environment using the sovereign ZALA GEOCOSMOS communication and navigation system and the dedicated 4Z1 software.
