If the Dragonfly could be put into service with the Armed Forces of Ukraine, it would be the coolest biological weapon in our arsenal. The tactical and technical characteristics of this insect are simply impressive: it can reach speeds of 100 km/h, hover in one spot like a helicopter, change flight direction in mid-air, and has a 360-degree panoramic view of the environment!
This predatory beauty is native to all continents except Antarctica and is one of the oldest insects that have ever inhabited the planet Earth.
Dragonfly larvae are born and live in water, while adult insects fly over water bodies. Their name ‘Odonata’ translates from Greek as ‘toothed’ as they have a peculiar jaw. The colour of their bodies depends on the species and can be brown, blue, yellow, green or red. So are their wings: they are usually transparent, but depending on the species, they have thick lace pattern of different colours.
The Dragonfly kids’ two-piece set by Telesyk Airlines has a colour palette similar to that of real insects, so that every child can choose their own livery. We have placed Dragonfly with a harp on the front, and the logo of THE SMALLEST AVIATION IN THE WORLD collection on the shorts.
