Spector M1 (meridian) (b96ba3df-fa7d-572e-8075-4bc53eac3ed9)
The Spector M1 (Meridian) is a Ukrainian‑produced mini‑UAV built by OJSC “Meridian” n. S. P. Korolyov. Powered by an electric motor, it can stay aloft for up to three hours and reaches 120 km/h, carrying a 1.5 kg payload of day/night cameras, infrared or multispectral sensors. Hand‑launched and recovered by parachute or belly landing, the platform is unarmed and operates in fully automatic, semi‑automatic or manual modes. It is fielded by the Ukrainian Armed Forces and State Border Guard Service for intelligence‑surveillance‑reconnaissance (ISR) missions, including border enforcement, search‑and‑rescue, general observation and maritime patrol. Its low visual signature and long endurance make it well suited to persistent, low‑altitude monitoring over contested or remote areas.
