The KBLA‑IVT is a Russian‑manufactured VTOL UAV produced by Tekhnodinamika (Rostec‑owned). Weighing up to 300 kg with a 4.57 m (≈15 ft) wingspan, it is powered by an internal‑combustion engine and can remain aloft for roughly one hour. Originally fielded in late 2020 for the Russian Aerospace Forces, the platform serves primarily as a high‑fidelity aerial target that mimics low‑speed helicopters and UAVs during missile‑ and weapons‑system trials, enabling precise accuracy assessment. Tekhnodinamika also markets the KBLA‑IVT for civilian roles such as agricultural or reconnaissance surveying, and the system can be equipped with cameras to provide real‑time ISR or to act as a decoy, drawing enemy fire away from manned helicopters.
