Description

A compact loitering-munition platform engineered for precision terminal strikes. The flying-wing airframe prioritizes low weight and aerodynamic efficiency to maximize maneuverability and accuracy during terminal approach. The system integrates GPS-guided autonomy, an onboard autopilot and an FPV link for operator oversight, enabling reliable navigation to and engagement of designated targets within a ~5 km standoff. Current development work concentrates on validating the airframe structure and integrating avionics with redundant safety checks to ensure dependable operation during autonomous and semi-autonomous missions.
