FIELD: aeronautical engineering.
SUBSTANCE: invention relates to aeronautical engineering, in particular to vehicle, transport system with the vehicle and the vehicle moving method. A vehicle comprises a fuselage equipped with at least one storage module, each capable of housing unmanned aerial vehicles, and at least one docking module, each capable of detachably coupling with at least one of the unmanned aerial vehicles so that it can be coupled to the fuselage to move the vehicle, and a control module capable of sending control commands to at least one of the unmanned aerial vehicle so that the vehicle can be released from the storage module to interface with one of the docking modules. The fuselage shall be capable of being simultaneously coupled to two or more unmanned aerial vehicles and the control module shall additionally be capable of receiving real-time range data from each of the unmanned aerial vehicles coupled to the fuselage so that, when the vehicle is moved, at least one of the unmanned aerial vehicles may be replaced by at least one other unmanned aerial vehicle when the range of the unmanned aerial vehicle being replaced is below the specified threshold. Variants of a transport system, each comprising the vehicle, and the vehicle moving method are also provided.
EFFECT: invention provides for increasing the vehicle operation safety, reducing accident rate, ensuring quicker vehicle arrival at destination point by means of ensuring a non-stop flight, and an expanded arsenal of passenger and cargo carrying capabilities.
