PRENEU, an unmanned aerial vehicle manufacturing and development company, announced on the 11th that it has supplied the electric unmanned helicopter "RUEPEL E" for the installation of coast guard ships.

The RUEPEL E is more convenient to maintain and operate compared to the existing engine type, and it can fly up to 75 minutes using a battery. All flights can automatically transmit, receive, and control images in real time up to 20 kilometers (km) through 5031 to 5090 megaherz (Mhz) band communication.

In consideration of the specificity of the operation of the ship, RUEPEL E, which applied the IP43 standard to all electronic equipment parts, installed a 360-degree communication repeater on the ship with the cooperation of the Coast Guard. It also reduced the inconvenience of operating long-distance communication antennas, which were uncomfortable when operating unmanned aerial vehicles.

The company explained that the National Intelligence Service (NIS) verification radio section encryption module has been applied to suit the security of unmanned aerial vehicles, which has recently been raised.

RUEPEL E is expected to be used to search for missing survivors by the Coast Guard by searching large areas in the air or for evidence of illegal fishing sites of Chinese fishing boats adversely affecting domestic fishing.

"We have overcome the inconvenience and limitations we felt when operating existing ships with domestic technology," a PRENEU official said. Operational tests such as communication distance, ship operability, and flight performance were conducted in the operation test on the West Sea. Similar high-priced products are equivalent to imported products, he said. "It will be used for purposes such as navy and deep-sea fishing boats in the future."
