1. Unmanned Aerial Vehicles
Mobile Systems Research Labs have years of experience with Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs).
The following types of UAVs have been developed:
Żuraw
It is the first UAV built and developed at MSRL.
It can fly up to 12 hours, thanks to a special wing
profile that allows gliding in order to save fuel.
Żuraw is equipped with a series of onboard
computers responsible for mission control,
navigation, communication and management of
onboard devices.
Wing span 5,4 m
Length 2,3 m
Starting mass 30 kg
Duration of flight 8-12 h (combustion engine)
Speed 100-150 km/h
Maximum altitude 4000 m
Required airfield size 100 x 50m (classical take-off and landing on a grassy or paved runway)
Communication range up to 50 km
Equipped with a specially constructed gimbal that support both thermal and optical camera (36x
zoom)
Detachable wings for transport purposes
Burzyk
Burzyk is currently the tiniest UAV built
in MSRL. It is so called ‘backpack UAV’,
it means that it can be divided into small
parts and transported in a backpack. The
longest element is 80 cm long and the
assembly time takes up to 10 minutes.
Thanks to its compact size Burzyk can be

2. launched from hand, catapult or specially designed cart, and the landing is performed on its chassis.
That is why Burzyk is perfect for reconnaissance missions, where every second counts and there is
no time to wait for larger UAVs taking off from an airfield.
It is equipped with an optical or thermal gimbal and it sends live video straight to the ground
station. It is also equipped with onboard computers. The most important ones are mission computer
and image processing computer. It is also possible to add different sensors to Burzyk UAV.
Wing span 2,4 m
Length 1,8 m
Starting mass 10 kg
Duration of flight 2-3 h (electrical engine)
Speed 45-120 km/h
Maximum altitude 4000 m
Required airfield size 25 x 50m (take-off from catapult, hand, trolley, landing on grass)
Communication range up to 10 km
Equipped with exchangeable gimbal with:
1. optical camera (2x zoom)
2. optical camera (10x zoom)
3. thermal camera
4. picture camera
The UAV is divided into elements of maximum length of 80 cm and is specially designed for
transportation in a backpack

3. Bąk
„Bąk” UAV is the newest airplane developed
at Mobile Systems Research Labs. It is
equipped with a specially designed gimbal
with optical and thermal cameras, range
distance finder and fire detection sensor. It
also has a set of onboard computers
responsible for mission control, navigation,
steering, recording of flight parameters and
image processing. It allows to recognize and
track vehicles from the air without the help of human operators. The image processing computer
also allows „Bąk” to move autonomously on the airfield. Amongst electronic devices installed
onboard „Bąk” there is also a communication module responsible for live video transmission, which
allows operators to track the mission and adjust it according to the needs. Like in any other UAV
built by MSRL it is possible to add different onboard or droppable sensors.
Wing span 6,2 m
Length 2,85 m
Starting mass 40 kg
Duration of flight 8h (combustion engine)
Speed 100 km/h
Maximum altitude 4000 m
Required airfield size 50 x 50m (take-off from catapult, landing on a parachute)
Communication range up to 50 km
Equipped with a specially constructed gimbal that support both thermal and optical camera (36x
zoom)
Detachable wings for transport purposes, catapult ready for transport
