Privet-82 overview

Privet-82 is a Russian electrically powered loitering munition publicly associated with the Oko design bureau. Reports describe a catapult-launched, conventionally arranged fixed-wing aircraft intended to reach a target area and attack under operator control. It is a munition rather than a general-purpose ISR aircraft, although its video link can support navigation and target identification.

Reporting on Ministry of Defense testing describes a 90-km/h cruise speed, a 160-km/h dive speed, a proposed range of about 30 km, and a warhead of more than 5 kg. The range and warhead are developer or reported program claims, not independent acceptance-test results; dimensions, endurance, weight, height, sensor fit, and production configuration are Not publicly disclosed. Reports also describe operator handover and claimed operation during GNSS interference, but those demonstrations do not establish universal electronic-warfare performance.

Oko-related testing was reported in 2023, including control transfer between operators and operation during claimed GNSS jamming conditions. Those demonstrations do not establish a broad operational inventory or combat record. Through September 2026, Privet-82 is best described as a Russian developmental or emerging loitering-munition program, with production scale and confirmed service status Not publicly disclosed.
