This is reported by Ukrspecsystems.

The company says that the development of the drone began already after the full-scale invasion of Ukraine by Russia, and in half a year the device was already flying.  Ukrspecsystems emphasizes that the drone is completely Ukrainian-made.

SHARK has a highly reliable communication module and a camera with 30-fold optical magnification and additional digital zoom, due to which the device can go deep behind the enemy lines -up to 60 km. The UAV can monitor an object at a distance of up to 5 km.

The flight time of the drone is more than 2 hours, the cruising speed is 70-90 km/h, and the maximum flight speed is 150 km/h.

On October 26, it was reported that two more UAV systems of the Eyes of Artillery project based on the Poseidon UAV will be delivered to the Ukrainian troops.
