Insta Group Oy press release

Insta has developed a new, more effective version of the combination of a drone and a patented explosive charge. The new version, the Insta Steel Eagle™ ER (Extended Range), is the result of international collaboration. Compared to the previous Insta Steel Eagle product, it brings a more capable and affordable solution to the defence technology market.

– The new solution combines broad expertise with state-of-the-art technology tested in harsh conditions. We have designed the patented explosive charge. The drone equipment that provides better performance as well as a longer range and higher load carrying capacity is supplied by our Ukrainian partner that operates in the wider drone ecosystem, explains Tuure Lehtoranta, Vice President, Sales and Customers, Defence at Insta.

With the drone, the explosive charge can be transported by air above the desired target, where it can then be detonated. The charge contains balls, and it delivers fragments across a wide area of effect, precisely striking the desired target from above.
