Yandex, KAMAZ and NAVIO vehicles transport real cargo along the M-11 Neva, M-4 Don, Central Ring Road and M-12 Vostok highways. Vladimir Putin opened traffic on M-12 in March this year via video link. Every kilometer is taken into account by a unified UAV detection system based on ERA-GLONASS, which is created on behalf of the President.

UAVs also work in the field. Russian cognitive pilot systems help tractors and combines to maintain their course and avoid obstacles, saving fuel and time.
